    Description

    1968 Detroit Tigers Team Signed Baseball. It was known as "The Year of the Pitcher" for the dominance of such legends as Bob Gibson of the St. Louis Cardinals and Denny McLain, who won an outrageous thirty-one games for the ballclub that is celebrated here. The 1968 American League Cy Young winner appears as one of twenty-nine blazing blue signatures upon this stunning OAL (Cronin) ball, almost assuredly the finest dedicated to this World Championship squad available in the hobby today. Other notables include Lolich, Kaline, Cash, Horton, Stanley, Wilson and Brown. Manager Mayo Smith signs over the Cronin stamping. This is no trick photography--the ball really is that perfect! LOA from PSA/DNA. LOA from James Spence Authentication.
