For what it’s worth I have gotten blatantly wrong info from Google AI on more than 1 occasion. Saying Belafonte is like me guessing who’s that light skinned African American famous person and never having seen the real singer.
The 2nd pic may be an athlete if that is “26”.

Yeah, i included that as a dig on Google lens, not a real possibility.

If you actually got Nureyev, that would be awesome.

Unless they really love mystery or some were just unidentified even to them, don’t really get not naming the subject. Would be abit annoying buying one and possibly never finding out who it is lmao

That's what was stated. These are the ones Leaf either couldn't identify or didn't feel were worth inclusion in the premium product. But you're right, if Leaf went through the process of identification on them, it would have been cool for them to include who they were, if they knew.

1st image google lens seems to think looks like Harry Belafonte.

2nd image signature could possibly be Robert / Stuart / Stewart #26 if that helps. Or it could be way off. The '26' could be a capital U for the first letter of the last name?
unfortunately, no. nothing on the back

These are largely obtained in New York I think? The athlete could be Troy Mallette, #26 for the NY Rangers in 1990. Looks like a hockey guy and the fashion seems to line up.

His signature looks different, but maybe that's a space limitation thing possibly.

Card numbers are based on alphabetical order, starting with first name, for the single-signed photos. Multi-signed photos are in the 2500 range.

They paid about $25 per auto so, the price shouldn’t be too high.

Edit: Nevermind. At $300, it’s WAY too high.

Yeah, which is why many seem to be doing the 30 dollar leaf pack as you get the experience without blowing your budget.

Agreed. The price point is way too high. I only paid $275 and even that was ridiculous. My two cases, I’m probably gonna end up losing a few thousand dollars. These should have been about $150 direct price in about $200 max retail. While I still think this is an amazing product and really unique, the price is too much.

Not Maury Wills. While the face does kinda resemble him, neither his signature nor hairline look like that.

I thought the guy on the right might be a younger Jason Segel, but now I don't think so. Signature doesn't really match either.

Fairly certain it's a sports player. Looks like photos I see where athletes park at the venue then walk down a ramp into the building.

There is a Frank Zappa on eBay at $500 Best Offer that keeps tempting me. It's a classic clean cut Zappa shot. Just not in my current budget. His certified autos are easily that much.

The guy on the left may be a TV personality since the sign on the top right is "TV 12". Maybe a local popular newscaster?

Email the Philly station with a picture of the guy (cropped with the auto removed) and ask them who it is.

No idea. I did find a Sun article that notes the Amistad exhibit was at the African American Museum in Philadelphia during the dates shown in the photo.
