Who Has The Best Looking Autograph of All-Time?

[Chillychow]

I gotta go with Harold Snepts for artistic impression:

 

[Leafsfan1967]

The best looking autograph of all time is: (insert any HOF player here).

Jamie, and Jordie Benn not so much.

 

[mully]

don't have a card of him right now,maybe someone else can post it,but theoren fleury had such a nice autograph,consistant and neat

 

[pathshot]

I like Jean Beliveau myself

Agreed. When I unloaded my collection, Beliveau was hard to let go because anything he signed was gorgeous.

Tom Barrasso says hi here!

95-96

10-11

12-13

15-16

That's a pretty consistent autograph by a such arrogant "jerk" huh?
His auto may not be the fanciest one but awfully consistent and looks about 95% exactly same now as for 20 years ago, now that's fairly impressive, or?
---------------------------------------------------------

But Gilles Gilbert's autograph is just tremendous, seriously!

Seems like you almost need two threads here. One for "best auto by a player born after 1975", since there are far fewer of those represented in these threads.

"Vintage" players all seemed to have very legible signatures -- ones where you could actually read each letter and know who signed what, vs today's players who sign a heck of a lot more stuff, and just rattle it off.

Thanks for some great scans tho -- great thread for sure. As for myself, I'll echo either Hasek or Khabibulin as my favourite auto for a "modern player".

Emile the cat Francis has a very clean and consistent auto
I also like Pierre pilote autograph very clean as well

 

[mortuus]

I must stay Peter Stastny has a very nice looking one specially on this card.

 

[qwas]

Not sure if he has been mentioned yet but here is one of my favorite sighners simply because he puts effort into each and every auto.

Three player auto's I've always really like have been Rod Langway, Mike Bossy, and the Dominator's!

Dave Stubbs (@Dave_Stubbs on Twitter) posted a great article today, Gordie Howe's birthday, on how Gordie's signature came to be.

A great read.

 

[Theideafactory]

Jacques Plante had a nice signature...

 

[frankiefives]

Steve Yzerman has a beautiful auto

This^^^^

 

[41butch]

Mike Modano has a very nice looking auto, very legible.

 

[mortuus]

Mike Modano has a very nice looking auto, very legible.

I wouldnt call that anything special really.. if anything it looks just lazy and rushed hardly much effort put into.

 

[foley2k]

I would say the Old Timers had the best autos. For the most part, clean and legible.

I always liked Yutaka Fukufuji's japanese auto, cause well, its in Japanese.

 

[coxy15]

Already noted but what an auto...

 

[Breakaway Dealz]

I have to agree that old timers are the best..
However that Yutaka Fukufuji's japanese auto is awesome!
The fact he signed it in Japanese make it one of a kind!
