Comment by eddy on August 15, 2025 at 5:35pm: Here's one from my collection archives. It's very early and adorned my wall for years. It's passed through other hands since.

Comment by Biff O'Hara on August 15, 2025 at 6:35pm: Great, thanks! Wow, that early FS signed Kriegsman must have been worth a lot!

Comment by AustinCollector on August 15, 2025 at 6:36pm: Lots of great insights and pieces in this thread

Comment by Biff O'Hara on August 15, 2025 at 6:48pm: Nice. The Capt. Buzzio FS signed from '62 is a great example. Funny, the PSA looks weird to me. Maybe he signed it to a fan quickly. Although, he signed many dozens of autographs to my mom in the late 40s & he always took his time. If it wasn't certified & slabbed, I wouldn't have trusted it. The "F" & the connection between k & S also looks odd. Maybe someone bumped him while writing the F. I really appreciate being able to share posts & ideas here. Thanks!

I posted that and the one before it to show how he got to the exemplars in the study I posted earlier.
