Knowing baseball autos (me) is highly different then boxing

Re: Help Identifying Boxing Autographs
on glove #4, the one at the top is almost certainly bob montgomery, it is a shaky, truncated, slurred autograph, but looks like montgomery. I havent matched it to another one signed like that but it matches key features of other full, nicer montgomery signatures.

Re: Help Identifying Boxing Autographs
The last autograph on glove 4 is fighting harada, he signs it f. harada, and also in his native language and also in another way so what looks like maybe three signatures is actually only one.
Montgomery, Harada, Gomez were all inducted in IBHOF in 1995 so these signatures all fit.

Re: Help Identifying Boxing Autographs
Mercante also inducted in 1995 in the non-participant category so this is a 1995 HOF glove.

Ken, thank you for inviting Travis to join the GUU community. You introduced me to Travis previously and I am really thankful for the help he provided me. His knowledge of the boxing space and his willingness to help others is a wonderful combination.
