It was a season punctuated by a Triple Crown for Mantle, a perfect game for Larsen, and a World Championship for the Bronx. So it is of little surprise that collectors tend to clamor for team balls from this Yankee edition, and here we provide a wonderful example. This OAL (Harridge) baseball is signed by twenty-seven (27) in ballpoint ink - leading off with choice signatures from Mickey Mantle and Yogi Berra on the sweet spot. Other signatures include: Billy Martin, Phil Rizzuto, Elston Howard, Whitey Ford, Jerry Coleman, Mickey McDermott, Don Larsen, Tom Sturdivant, Bob Cerv, Joe Collins, Gill McDougald, Billy Hunter, Tom Morgan, Rip Coleman, Bob Turley, Johnny Kucks, Bob Grim, Andy Carey, Tom Carroll, Irv Noren, Charlie Silvera, Eddie Robinson, Hank Bauer, Tommy Byrne, and Bill Skowron. Overall in excellent condition, minor scattered spots of yellow toning. Accompanied by a full Letter of Authenticity from Beckett Authentication Services as well as PSA/DNA.
