Can anyone give me an approximate value and where/how to sell this baseball?
1939 All-star Game Baseball signed by (24) players, including HOF's Mel Ott, Johnny Mize, Gabby Harnett, Billy Herman, Arky Vaughan, Joe Medwick, and Ernie Lombardi. Also includes the signature of Ford C. Frick the NL President as well as most of the rest of the NL all-star team, only missing Paul Derringer and one other team member. It also includes the signature of John Corriden, the NL Coach and Charlie Root, who was not actually in the all-star game this year, I understand.
The ball is in excellent condition and all signatures are clean an easily readable. The ball has a light coat of shellack over it to protect the signatures.
The ball is a Spalding Ball and "All-Star 1939 Game" is stamped or written in black over the Spalding logo. It has red stitching and looks to be a practically new ball, except for the light coating of shellack. Can not verify if it is an actual game-used ball, but there seems to be one or two very light bat contact marks benetah the shellack.
This ball is 99.9% verifiable as authentic as the owners are an elderly couple (in their 80's) in which the husband received it and has been the sole owner of it since 1939.
Thanks,
Ray
