Here's a 1934 World Series program, which includes 21 signatures led by Babe Ruth on the cover. The program is signed throughout, and includes seven other Hall of Famers, with Mickey Cochrane, Goose Goslin, Charlie Gehringer, Frank Frisch, Dizzy Dean, Leo Durocher and Joe Medwick, along with some big-name non-HOFers like Paul Dean, Pepper Martin, Schoolboy Rowe, Tommy Bridges, Ray Hayworth, Luke Hamlin, Fred Marbury, Bill Rogell, Jojo White, Gee Walker, Victor Sorrell and Frank Doljack. The cover is detached from the rest of the program and has some water damage and paper loss, but the Ruth signature still presents well. The program is neatly scored in pencil and several of the middle pages are loose from the staples. Most of the players signed next to their images inside of the program which could lead the eventual owner to cut this one up and sell each signature as a signed photo. The top right corner of the program and pages throughout have water damage, which unfortunately, affects Dizzy Dean's signature (and Sorrell), but none of the other players. The signatures throughout the program are authenticated by JSA with a full LOA.
