Negro League TTM

[GoWarrior]

This thread is twofold. First, I want to create a current list of living Negro Leaguers who still sign TTM.

I'm about to start a Negro Leagues TTM campaign. Too many of them are gone and the ones that are still around aren't getting any younger.

Second, I'm looking for good photos of these players, and would prefer the photos be of them in uniform during their playing days. I would like photos big enough to print as 8x10s, but I can make smaller prints if high enough quality photos just don't exist. I'm pretty sure there is a thread somewhere about requesting photos but for some reason I couldn't find it.

Players in particular that I'm looking for... and please expand this list if you know of others still alive and signing!

John Mule Miles
Ted Toles
Robert Scott
Monte Irvin

Thanks everyone!

Good idea. I'd like to add Mahlon Duckett, and Art "Superman" Pennington, both played while the Negro Leagues were still in their prime before the major leagues integrated. Pennington signs for a small fee, but it would probably be a good idea to give something to Duckett for his trouble also. I'm guessing these guys don't get a pension from their playing days and I know that Pennington's house was nearly destroyed a few years ago from a flood.

By the way, you will be in for a treat when you get your return from Miles. He's one of the best TTMers there is. Bon Chance!
