    Re: Help Identifying Boxing Autographs

    My good friend has asked me to help with some boxing autographs on a glove.

    on glove 4, the obvious ones are wilfredo gomez and arthur mercante (sr.)

    still working on the rest and also glove number 1.

    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.

    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.

    Mercante also inducted in 1995 in the non-participant category so this is a 1995 HOF glove.
