“…We selected from the well-documented catalogue three historical items
of correspondence for the Sibley Music Library. Each item was
associated with a significant name in 20th-century American music. The
transaction was handled professionally and with dispatch. I was
particularly grateful both for the preservation attention shown to the
items, and the excellent packaging so as ensure physical integrity
while enroute. A pleasure to do business together.…”

RECOGNIZING NEW YORK STATE ASSEMBLYMAN
SAM HOYT
In recognition of Sam Hoyt's two-decades of dedicated public service as New York State Assemblyman and Majority Whip, Weekes Autographs recently presented him with a Mickey Mantle autograph display. The custom-designed piece features a signed Mantle "action shot" that has been professionally matted with a Tops #10 trading card and New York Yankees emblem. The ensemble is enhanced by a hand-applied pinstripe jersey-motif matboard, museum glass and a complementary blue wood frame.

"Sam's passion for public service has been evident throughout his career," observes Donnell G. Mueller, Business Development Director for Weekes Autographs. "He has been untiring in his support of many important causes that have positively impacted the lives of Western New Yorkers."
Adds Ron Weekes, "There's no doubt that Sam's presence in the political arena will be missed, while his leadership and vision are certain to continue in his new post with the Empire Economic Development Corporation." Recently, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo appointed Hoyt to serve as regional senior vice president of the Empire Economic Development Corporation.
Hoyt began his career on the staff of the late Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan and with the Buffalo Bisons Baseball as marketing and promotions manager. "Whenever we'd run into Sam I could count on him to ask if I had any signed baseball cards," says Ron with a smile. "I gave up reminding him that we seldom deal in sports memorabilia but never forgot his comment. What could make a better gift than a genuine autograph of 'the Mick'?" adds Ron.
WEEKES AUTOGRAPHS was privileged to be commissioned by Western New York Public Broadcasting to create a custom autograph display of Gilbert & Sullivan. The presentation was made to comedian-political satirist Mark Russell on his 20th anniversary with Public Television. (Left to Right: Mark Russell; Michael Collins, WNED-TV president - retired).
