Bill Mazeroski

 

Bill Mazeroski had 138 HR and 853 RBI during his 17-year Hall-of-Fame MLB career.  He played his entire career with the Pirates, was an All-Star during seven different seasons, won eight Gold Glove Awards, and earned two World Series rings.  He is perhaps most famous for his Game 7  walk-off home run to win the 1960 World Series against the Yankees.  He signed a card depicting that moment, as well as a 1965 Topps card.  He charges $10 per signature.  Thanks, Bill!

Jason Alexander

Jason Alexander played George Costanza on Seinfeld, where he was employed as Assistant to the Traveling Secretary of the New York Yankees.  In addition to plenty of blunders, he also gave batting tips to several members of the team.  The Yankees won the World Series in 1996.  On the opposite side of Jason's signature is a Yankees hologram.  Thanks, Jason!
