This shikishi (traditional Japanese autograph board) was signed by four members of the Yomiuri Giants in 1959. We know this because of the very early Sadaharu Oh signature. This fact was confirmed in the James Spence Authentication letter of authenticity. Not only did Oh sign this shikishi (at lower left), but it is also autographed by Japan Pro Baseball Hall of Fame members Shigeo Nagashima (upper left) and Tatsuro Hirooka (upper right). Non-HOFer Yuko Minamimura also signed the shikishi (lower right).
Signed in black marker.
