It's always a nice plus to know precisely when a vintage autograph was provided. Skip the guess work and get in the know, with this collection of (12) Washington Senators signed GPCs. All are postmarked between 1934-1936, assuring the period of origin for this "dependable dozen". The cream-toned cards show age-appropriate wear, and the autographs range ("7" to "9") in potency. Given that all of the subjects departed long ago, this ancient collection stacks up as a very desirable find. Auction LOA from JSA.
