Hi there I am new to this forum but it looks very good. I am a baseball autograph collector and recently purchased what was described to me as a 1937 St. Louis Browns team ball signed by 22 people. The interesting thing is as follows: Gabby Street and John Schoonover signed the ball and are not on the 1937 Browns roster. I know that Street managed the team in the early 1930s and came back as manager in 1938, but why would he sign during 1937, what was he doing, did he have some other association with the team that year??? Also, I can find no record of a John Schoonover playing in the major leagues at any point in history. Does anyone know who he is?? Is he associated with the team in anyway? maybe the batboy? a coach? a scout? st. louis politician?
Any help anyone could provide would be great.
