Seems like a good day for signatures so I thought I'd bust this out for everyone. I got it from my grandmother when I was a kid. She used to work for the Tigers and got this one day. She says they usually only gave them out to terminally ill children. As you can see in the scan my uncles had some fun with it at some point. Let me know what you think of it and what the $ value might be. Sentimental value I am sure is much more than the $ though.

    Nice sheet...great stuff being posted today!

    There are no super rare signatures on that sheet, and the Hall of Famers are not really valuable in and of themselves. Rolfe, Hutchinson and Mapes are all fairly hard to get non-HOF autographs worth $50-75 individually themselves.

    Just a guess but the sheet might bring $200-300 minimum at auction.

    That sounds like a fun project. You might want to matte out you're uncle's scribbles if you do that though...

    i was thinking the same thing, matte over those and place a nice Newhouser card there.

    Look at the nice penmanship as opposed to todays scribbles.

    I was going to say the same thing. You can just go right down the list without hardly a pause and read them all off. Of course these guys probably signed one auto to the thousand that a guy signs today.

    i envy.... face turns green.....would be greener if Kell and Kuenn were included!!!! agreed tho, would be nice framed maybe with the '52 cards or the '53s, since the '53s commemorate the '52 season!!!!
