    Description

    1940's Babe Ruth Single Signed Baseball. The Bambino makes full use of the sweet spot of this "Wilson" brand ball, registering one of the largest Ruth signatures you'll find on horsehide. The bold black fountain pen ink has mellowed only slightly through the passing decades, rating an impressive 8.5/10 today. A few scattered spots of toning around the signature present absolutely no cause for concern, and are mentioned purely for accuracy's sake. Our catalog imagery should illustrate that the ball presents magnificently, certainly comparable to those Ruth singles realizing tens of thousands of dollars on the auction block. LOA from PSA/DNA. LOA from James Spence Authentication.
