"Why It's a 5 cent Series" This is a wonderful set of Yankee baseball signatures from the late 1940’s to 1960’s, as well as signatures of players from other baseball teams. There are three Hall of Fame signatures and two Rookie of the Year signatures, and a couple by players who only pitched in total of nine major league games, so their signatures are rarities. Players include include Don Larsen, who threw a perfect game in the 1956 World Series, Bob Lemon (HOF pitcher for the Cleveland Indians), Phil Rizzuto (Hall of Fame shortstop for the Yankees), and Enos Slaughter, who played for the St. Louis Cardinals and New York Yankees and was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1985. There are about twenty other signatures, including that of Mel Allen, famed broadcaster for the New York Yankees from the 1940’s to the 1960’s. Other players include Tommy Henrich, an outfielder for the Yankees; Charlie Keller, a left fielder for the Yanks and Detroit Tigers; Bobby Richardson, second baseman for the Yankees; Harry Danning, catcher for the New York Giants; Don Mueller, outfielder for the Giants and White Sox; good old Ace Adams, pitcher for the Giants; Buddy Kerr, shortstop for the Giants and Boston Braves in the 40’s and 50’s; Andy Carey, third baseman for the Yanks and a couple of other teams; Mel Stottlemyre, Yankees pitcher in the 60’s and 70’s; Ron Guidry, a pitcher known as “Louisiana Lightning” for the Yankees (his number 49 was retired in 2003); Moose Skowron, first baseman for the Yankees, and Gil McDougald, Yankee infielder and Rookie of the Year in 1951; Spec Shea, a great name and pitcher for the Yankees and Washington Senators in the 1940’s and 50’s; Alvin Dark, Rookie of the Year in 1948 for the Boston Braves; Larry Jansen, pitcher for the Giants and Cincinnati Redlegs in the 1950’s; Johnny Lindell, who played for several teams in the 40’s and 50’s; Al Worthington, pitcher for the Giants and other teams in the 50’s and 60’s; and Francis Red Hardy, a pitcher who played minor league ball in the 40’s and only pitched two games in his major league career, so a rare signature, and William “Bill” Marshall, a second baseman who only played seven professional baseball games for the Red Sox and Cincinnati Reds, so his signature is a rarity, too. Some of the signatures are bold, a few are faded and difficult to read, but overall a nice assembly of baseball signatures from the mid 40’s, 50’s, and 60’s. Overall size: 25 1/2 x 32 in.
