Do any of these players NOT make autograph appearances?

cjedmonton · Nov 29, 2012

Does anyone know which of these players are tougher to get to sign than others? I'm looking at a multi-signed HOF item that has room to add about 20 more. I realize the list has a few non-HOFers, but it's just a matter of time for them.

Thanks in advance.

Andre Dawson
Barry Bonds
Barry Larkin
Bert Blyleven
Cal Ripken Jr.
Craig Biggio
Eddie Murray
Greg Maddux
Jim Rice
Ken Griffey Jr.
Ozzie Smith
Paul Molitor
Randy Johnson
Rich Gossage
Rickey Henderson
Roberto Alomar
Roger Clemens
Ryne Sandberg
Tom Glavine
Tony Gwynn

Bonds and Henderson (I think)

Molitor and Blyleven are usually at TwinsFest, so you can take them off of your list.

Aside from bonds most of those guys are pretty easy to get most do big shows and the majority will be in Cooperstown for induction weekend. It's just a matter of paying their going rate. Last time I looked Henderson was near 200 with an inscription.

Thanks for the feedback. I know this would be a costly and time intensive project, but I think it'd be incredible to have a single item with 100+ HOF sigs on it.

That would be impressive. I go to induction weekend every year and I am always amazed at some of the multi signed pieces guys have there. I remember one guy had an actual home plate and had been getting it signed by hall of famers for years. Must have been 75 or so on there.

Glavine lives about 5 minutes from me and is one of the nicest guys I have ever met. Always talks with you and signs. Only got rejected once, and that was only because I unknowingly stopped him on his way to the bathroom.

Cal will be out here in April.

Rickey Henderson signed for a long time at an A's spring training game last year.

Barry Larkin and Ken Griffey Jr. Are extremely hard to get. Lark does do a one or two shows a year... I never understood this Barry would sign on the road but hardly in Cincy... Jr doesn't sign much is under contract with upper deck he is tough, doesn't do shows or appearances.... He is doing assignments for Seattle might get lucky... Good luck I'd love to see the piece

Thanks for all the tips. I think my best bet would just be to save my pennies and get as many as I could afford during HOF weekend.

The names in red are my wishlist...but only if they are actually inducted.

Here's the piece as it stands:

Holy wow....

Bogeysave82 · Jan 21, 2013

That is amazing

If you still need Rickey, I can get you the info for his manager. Walt is a good guy and Rickey signed a lot of mail order stuff when I was waiting at their hotel. He can have pictures of Rickey signing it too.

Nice job Brian. Walt was the first guy I thought of.

Bonds, Griffey, and Johnson are the toughest on the list.

Thanks for the updates. I have now decided to send the poster off to the National this summer to get several knocked off the list at once.
