All Fenway Team Autograph Opportunity

At the last Red Sox home game of 2012 the organization announced the all Fenway Park Team as voted on by the fans.  I did participate in the voting process throughout the season and was proud that everyone I voted for except Bruce Hurst and Marty Barrett were honored.  I was also happy to note that even if you disagreed with the voting process and/or the final outcome, that this team will provide some great autograph opportunities for a Red Sox collector.


Members of the All Fenway who were in attendance on Sept. 26th.  Notable players missing:  Wade Boggs, Curt Schilling, George Scott, Dave Roberts, Terry Francona, Mo Vaughn and more.

First, is that autographs from all the living members of the announced team are very attainable.  In fact in the next 3-6 weeks many of the honorees will be participating in autograph signings around eastern Massachusetts.  Moreover, I would recommend purchasing a ball signed by Johnny Pesky and adding the living members to that item.  Most Pesky balls or other signed items will not be that expensive and a great way to start this unique item.

100 Year ball is a great item for the honorees to autograph.






















Second, as the season ends, expect to see many Fenway 100 year items such as hats, photos, books, balls, shirts and bats get marked down.  These are great items to get signed by the All Fenway team. 

I recommend collecting the signatures on one item and build it up over time.  This will make the item more valuable instead of 35+ individual signed items.  The team is listed below.
