Baseball Hall of Fame (1939–Present). Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, Honus Wagner and Cy Young signed Hall of Fame Induction Sheet. All four signed signatures are in black ink, the signatures are clean and clear and are as crisp as the day they were signed. The Hall of Fame was established in 1939 by Stephen Carlton Clark, an heir to the Singer Sewing Machine fortune. Clark sought to bring tourists to a city hurt by the Great Depression, which reduced the local tourist trade, and Prohibition, which devastated the local hops industry. Clark constructed the Hall of Fame's building, and it was dedicated on June12, 1939. (His granddaughter, Jane Forbes Clark, is the current chairman of the Board of Directors). Comes with a Letter of Certification from Autograph Certification Experts (ACE).
