172.0. "Picture post cards" by AIMHI::CORRIGAN () Wed Aug 29 1990 17:51

    
    Just opened this file and looked for the topic. Hope I'm not repeating
    one.
    I have a picture post-card autographed in pencil by Wes Ferrell. He
    was a pitcher for the Sox (among others), it also says 1936. I have no
    reason to believe the autograph is anyhting but real. I found this in
    an old box in my parents house.
    Would there be anyone who would find this of value. I don't know the
    first thing about collecting or value of these items and would
    appreciate any info. you could give.
    The only thing I know about him was he and his brother (a catcher) both
    played for tha Sox for 5 or 6 years and in that time he threw a
    no-hitter. Thanks for any info.

    It's a postcard, no stamp. The pencil autograph has held up for almost
    60 years so..... Thanks for the info on Rick, though.
