Ok you appear to be correct regarding the Gomes Autograph.

Again as far as getting the Game Used Item autographed, the question is more do you want it autographed over should it be autographed with a newer autograph.

(Granted again the time difference of when the actual item was used.)

For Example:
I wouldnt have Hank Aaron sign a Jersey now that he wore 40 years ago although I would have him autograph now a Jersey he wore last season for a special instructer of Spring Training.
