BABE RUTH SINGLE SIGNED BASEBALL

Estimate
US$30,000 - US$40,000
Price realised:
US$40,000
Beschreibung:

Babe Ruth Single Signed Baseball A ball signed by Babe Ruth is a transcendent object. Its appeal reaches beyond the circles of sports memorabilia enthusiasts, earning recognition as an iconic piece of Americana. A premier example is offered here. Placed on the sweet spot of this OAL (Harridge) ball is the Bambino's classic signature penned in exceptionally dark black ink (8-9/10). Manufacturer's stampings are light, likely as rendered in the manufacturing process, given the balls unused, uncirculated appearance. Minimal evidence of handling is revealed throughout the off-white surface of the ball, which remains in near mint condition overall. This ball is being offered here from the first time publicly, after descending in the family of its original recipient. LOA from PSA/DNA.
