Lot #4107

Babe Ruth, Walter Johnson, and Connie Mack Signed Baseball

Description

Ruth, Johnson, Mack, and Appling highlight a red-and-blue stitched Ban Johnson baseball

Official Reach American League (Johnson) baseball signed in ink on the sweet spot and side panels by Babe Ruth (ss), Walter Johnson, Connie Mack, Luke Appling, Mule Haas, Lew Fonseca, and Jimmy Dykes. Ruth added an inscription to the east panel (evidently to "George"), which is now illegible. In very good condition, with toning, scratching, and scuffing, rendering some of the signatures very difficult to discern and removing parts of the Ruth signature. An uncommon combination of signatures, highlighted by Ruth and Johnson—two of the Hall of Fame's inaugural inductees. Accompanied by a full letter of authenticity from PSA/DNA.
