The cover of the contract reads, “AMERICAN LEAGUE PLAYER’S CONTRACT - With W. Wilcy Moore Contract assigned by Boston to New York (AL) 1/32 and approved by American League office 8/12/32”. The cover has two signatures done by the American League president William Harridge and is dated, “MAR 28 1932”. The body of the contract states that Selkirk Moore earns “an aggregate salary of $6,500”. The second-to-last page is signed by Boston Red Sox President Robert Quinn in blue ink and Moore in black ink on January 25th, 1932 and in our opinion the signatures rate a combined 9. Accompanied by a LOA from JSA.
