1950's Autograph Identification

airjoedanairjoedan Posts: 776 ✭✭✭

This is from a collection that included all 1948-1953 autographs (most items are even postmarked). Autographs have included primarily baseball, football, and golf athletes. There were a few basketball, olympian, and celebrity autographs as well (very few).

The collection was untouched and included many high end autographs from the era, so these unknowns could be someone very rare or someone very common as this is the first attempt by a collector to decipher.

Any help is appreciated! Thanks again!

UNKNOWN 1:

  1. Arch McDonald (baseball)
  2. Joe Kirkwood Jr. (golf)
  3. Skee Riegel (golf)

UNKNOWN 2

  1. Frank Stranahan (golf)
  2. Jimmy Clark (golf)
  3. Jim Ferrier (golf)
  4. Sam Dente (baseball)

UNKNOWN 3:

  1. Cy Perkins (baseball)

For the sake of numbering, let's start with #1 in each picture at the top left with #2 following below it on the left side, and so on. Thanks!

    none of the files appear to work, at least on my computer.

    Hey, that should work now! Looks like the photo posting method for these boards changed. I remember using [IMG] tags before and now it is just an attachment. Sorry!

    Here are a few more from this collection that have been identified :smile:
