1949 Tris Speaker Signed Government Postcard (PSA GEM MINT 10)
Government postcard, postmarked February 16, 1949, signed in blue ink by Tris Speaker. PSA has encapsulated the card and graded the signature GEM MINT 10. This card is part of a much larger signature collection compiled by our consignor's father in the late 1940s ("The Long Beach Autograph Collection"). Like nearly all autograph collectors at the time, his main method was to write each player and enclose a prepaid self-addressed government postcard to be signed and returned. As we can see by the size of the collection, most players were more than happy to oblige. All the items from the collection are featured in nineteen separate lots in this auction, including the signatures of many prominent Hall of Famers. The original note to Speaker from the recipient appears above Speaker's signature. The postcard (5.5x3.25") displays a few light creases.
