Buck Leonard (1907-1997)



I recently picked up three more clean looking index card autographs off eBay. The second is this Buck Leonard signature. It matches the style of his bumpy signature after his unfortunate stroke, later in his life. Leonard was a hero of the Negro Leagues, and was part of the first class of Negro League stars inducted into the Hall in the 1970s. I'm glad to add this one, even if it doesn't come from a living member of the Hall.
