Help identifying autographs.

Hi guys,

My uncle passed away this last Sunday and we've been cleaning out his house this week. He had no children, was never married and lived alone all of his life.

Yesterday we found the two balls shown below as well as a huge stamp collection (used, unused, full panels, etc) and massive raw coin collection (with some old foreign bills as well). He also had hundreds of tickets in an album for sports events dating back to the early 70s to recent. We know he used to go to a lot of games and loved all sports very much, major league and minors alike. I would not be surprised if he obtained these in person.

I'll be the first to admit that I know very little about autos, never really got into them all that much, so I'm hoping someone can help identify them for us.

This is on an official PAC-10 conference ball.

This next one is on an official MLB ball.

If you need any better picture, please let me know. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, all.

Justin

My guess is Eric Reece of UCLA for the top one and Gljsdkjdilelsls on the bottom

Gljsdkjdilelsls was a 5 tool player.

I just noticed the top ball was made in China....I mean really? Can we not even make our own baseballs now?

I think you're absolutely right on the Eric Reece auto. Thanks for pointing that one out! I found numerous UCLA ticket stubs in his album as well.

The MLB ball is still a mystery. Would a better picture help?
