In reality, there are a number of Babe Ruth signed baseballs in the marketplace. Just about every single auction features one. The Bambino was a gracious man who granted autograph requests all the time, and in turn the market is reflection of that abundance of Ruth autographs. Despite Ruth's willingness to sign, the amount of high quality Ruth single signed baseballs that have survived over the last 70+ years is definitely in short supply. Whether it is fading, soiling, alterations, etc., almost 90%+ of the Ruth signed baseballs exhibit some sort of significant flaw.
Showcased here for your bidding pleasure is one of the select few Ruth specimens to survive the test of time in favorable fashion. This Reach official American League (Harridge) baseball showcases a bold, beautiful rich Ruth autograph on the side panel in a strong vibrant blue ink. The lightly toned panels along the side are clean throughout and feature manufacturer and league stampings.
If you are in the market for a great Ruth ball then look no further. You may find many others out there, but few can compare to the quality of this vintage gem. Accompanied by a full Letter of Authenticity from James Spence Authentication (JSA).
