    these are courtesy Heritage ...i only got about 15 at first glance including the back rows. I won't name them yet to spoil it.
    looks like:

    48 in the front

    63 in the back

    Back row... way too hard to see several of them, but I see, in some order...

    Eric Davis
    Reggie Jackson
    Sandy Koufax
    Jim BUnning
    Scott Rolen
    Billy Wagner
    Gary Sheffield
    Frank Chance
    Tom Herr
    Bob Feller
    Brian Jordan
    Cal Ripken Jr
    Ted Williams
    Ozzie Smith
    Bob Gibson
    Rollie Fingers
    Pete Rose
    Ron Santo
    Andre Dawson

    Both front and back rows... a lot of St. Louis Cardinals related autographs!

    ahhh nice, good pickup...and thanks for putting them in an order

    gee whiz great hit rate...i don't want to read ur list anymore cause u got about all of them..nice!
    early vs late autos...now u just showing off..:)..im just kidding of course..its actually pretty cool
    any other patterns? like Bing Devine a little before me, and I'm guessing a HOFer
    49 is eric davis? i am very impressed...
    9 bob gibson is that a newer one vs an old one at 88...the lone "Bob" i thought i recognized just by his facsimile auto on his rookie card....thats as far as my auto expertise goes.

    14...dick groat
    46..steve garvey...my childhood hero...its light but distinctive (to me)
    71...?harmon kellebrew......What do u think, its on the end, 3 rows down??? Im going by that "hook" of his "w"..can only see the last half of his last name
