Any Baseball Enthusiast? Need help with Autograph Ball
« on: May 25, 2015, 03:04:18 pm »
I need your help to identify the autograph on this baseball.  I am hoping that there are some baseball enthusiast on the thread. I purchase ball in Central Georgia USA at Goodwill.   I can not make out the autograph on the ball.  I am not able to locate any information on the nickname "Q" or the number 4 (?) or any of the other inscription.  Please take a look at the photos and see if you can make out the name.  Thanks in advance.

WOW!!  I thought we had it. Thanks konniem56 for your information.  I'll have to agree with Mart though.  The signature does not match. I'm still working on it.  I thought maybe looking for the jersey number may help but no success there either.

Hi Guys,

Any idea if that is the #4 or would it be "H" for homeruns?  Also any take on the puzzle (C[O_O[6)? The meaning? Thanks

Notice after the name the "Q".  That is a marker that should make the signature stand out.
I'm from the South - but please don't mistake my Southern Manners/Accent/Charm as a weakness!

Below is photos of the other side.  konniem56, I believe you are on to something.  I'll check out Preston Hanna's Autograph.  Also "MART" I go through  the list on the link you provided.  It seems reasonable that it could be Preston Hanna since the Braves is right here under my nose.
