The greatest National League slugger of his age makes full use of the side panel of an OAL (Johnson) sphere to create this single dated to the dead center of his illustrious playing career. Hornsby writes, "To My Friend Frank Fitzsimmons from Rogers Hornsby Oct. 5, 1928," likely regretting somew...

Take notice of the quotation marks around the "Babe" on this solid sweet spot signature, as they assure the most ideal vintage. Ruth dropped the punctuation in 1928, definitively pegging the presented sphere to the period of the Bambino's greatest days. Surface abrasions throughout the non-offi...

The appearance of the great Bambino upon an Official National League baseball dating to the presidency of John Heydler assures playing days vintage, as Ford Frick would take over duties as head of the Senior Circuit at the close of the 1934 season. We're then led rather reasonably to the assumpti...

High-grade sphere is consigned to Heritage by Maria herself, who wisely imposed upon the Yankee captain for an autograph shortly before his tragic death in a Canton airplane accident.
