Baseball Signed by 13 New York Yankees Circa 1949.
Lot 161. Baseball Signed by 13 New York Yankees Circa 1949. Joe DiMaggio is on the sweet spot of this ball, which is signed by two other Hall of Fame members, Casey Stengel and Yogi Berra. Other signers are Joe Page, Allie Reynolds, Cliff Mapes, John Lindell, Vic Raschi, Jim Turner, Tommy Byrne, Tom Henrich, Charlie Keller and Bill Johnson. Interestingly, the signature of Schoolboy Rowe, in a pen different from the rest, is also present. The ball is lightly shellacked and evenly toned; stampings are no longer visible. Upon close examination, it appears that, inexplicably, some autographs were removed. The autographs of the Yankees are in green ballpoint. The DiMaggio signature is an ex-m+ 6-7. The other autographs are 9s and 10s. Authenticated by Kevin Keating.
Winning Bid $180.
