    nice I would like that. Great deal if it stays between $250-$500 I think.

    Fairly reputable certifier. The auto's, based on my experience, look legit -- but not the best (a little light/worn). I would want some better scans, and also would want to know the commisioner on the ball. Good buy at it's current price if you just want to keep it and not interested in re-selling. IMO. Regards.
    Proud of my 16x20 autographed and framed collection - all signed in person. Not big on modern - I'm stuck in the past!

    Nice item. Personally, this is the 500 HR item I'll own someday. 500 HR Poster (Hopefully within the next year or so.) I remember when these first came out in the late 1980s and I thought they were the coolest thing then...and I still do. The 3000 Hit poster isn't nearly as nice, IMHO.

    Then again, there's always this one...
    The best of both...

    AJW - that is a nice piece. I recall that Williams would never sign directly up the leg like the rest. Thanks for posting it .

    the Certificate of Authenticity is not connected in any way to that ball. You have to just take the sellers word that it is the ball that the cert is referring. I would not touch it.

    Hi Allen
    GoBraves is most definitely correct in being fearful. Now, the seller has a good rating and I would want to know if they would back the item up if you have it authenticated.

    The ball actually looks pretty good - I have seen better Killebrews - but the Aaron and Jackson look good and the Mick and Teddy Ball do sign similar to that. But I will say that there are a few guys out there who can do some really good copies!

    If they are not willing to give you a "long term" guarantee to allow it to be authenticated, I would have to say - pass.

    Finally, I'm no expert or anything, but I do have quite a few of these guys authenticated by PSA/DNA.
