The Sport Americana Baseball Address List - No. 3

156 Pages. Tight square book with no marks or stamps. There might be nothing more distinctive and personal that a person may do throughout his life than write his own name. This signature, how it changes from childhood to senility, its thin or broad stroke, its clarity, neatness, and readability is a reflection of the character, mood, and personality of the signer. Perhaps for these reasons, a person's signature has become his universally accepted mark for identification, acknowledgement, and legal and contractual agreement. This book concentrates on the personal signatures or autographs of baseball players. We attempt to provide the background, explanations, and wherewithal for a collector to begin or augment his collection. Many illustrations taken from what we believe are authentic signatures are presented for your observation. Some helpful hints are provided so that your autograph hunting pursuits may be simplified and fruitful. When reading and using this book, please keep in mind, the moral and legal rights of the ballplayers themselves. Some are more cooperative than others, some have more time to comply with your requests than others, but all are entitled to respect, privacy, and the right to affix or not affix his signature based on his own personal thoughts or moods.
