The second tour of Japan would prove to be much more star driven than the first arranged by Herb Hunter. During that time the likes of Ruth, Foxx, Gehrig, Berg, Cochrane & others would grace the island to play some exhibition games to spread the joy of baseball. This 1930's official American League baseball is attributed to that famous second tour.
Presented on this evenly toned OAL baseball are the likes of Babe Ruth, Jimmie Foxx, Moe Berg, Mickey Cochrane, George Kelly, Ted Lyons, Herb Hunter, Estel Crabtree, T.L. Douthit, Bill Brubaker, Augie Galan, and others including, possibly, Lefty O’Doul (faded).
Ruth's signature remains the strongest on the ball. A great piece of baseball history connecting to the sport's infancy in Japan. Full letter of authenticity accompanies this fine ball from PSA/DNA.
