Autographs that I need help identifying. Can you help?

I really need some help. All of these autographs seem to be from a private collection from one individual. They all seem to date from around the 1950's - 1990's. I have been able to identify two of the autographs in this collection and that is all. 1 was Nancy Lopez (LPGA Golfer), and the other one was Henry Kembro (Negro League ball player.)

Any information you could provide would be appreciated. I'm not sure if it's allowed or not, but I'd like to run a contest and give away 2 of the autographs in this collection to the person who can correctly identify the most. At the very least it will be a fun game. Thanks for the help.

Are they only from the sport genre? I thought I recognised Wayne Sleep (dancer/actor) in there as the 20th one down. I might be mistaken though! :lol:

Hi, you might be right. No, I do not believe they are sports figures. There is 1 autograph I believe to be a William Steinberg (German Composer) in the mix. And the one has a dancer drawn on it. So to answer your question, No they are not all sports figures. I just did a search online for a Wayne Sleep autograph. I believe you are correct. You got 1 right. Thanks! You're in first place.

Sorry might be quite hard to see them on those backgrounds. These were obtained IP, but they seem to match generally with your scans.
