This partially toned, red-stitched Reach Official American League William Harridge stamped baseball bears an autograph that is deliciously "Ruth-ian" signature of none other than Babe Ruth himself. The sight of Babe Ruth's black-ink signature example on its sweet spot elevates the ball to a special status as a classic piece of Americana. In creating an exceptional keepsake – and showcasing the most famous signature since John Hancock's – the master signer placed his scripting. Although the "Babe" signed many baseballs in his lifetime and this marvelously displayable specimen illustrates how so many of them came to be regarded as works of art. The pinnacle of any collector is a single-signed Babe Ruth signed baseball and this ball comes with a full Letter of Authenticity from PSA/DNA.
