Hal Smith, Rocky Nelson, Dick Schofield, Joe Christopher, Gene Baker, Bob Oldis, Mickey Vernon, Vern Law, Bob Friend, Harvey Haddix, Vinegar Bend Mizell, Roy Face, Paul Giel, Earl Francis and a few others. Ball is beautifully toned with signatures that exhibit very minor rubbing and grade an overall 8 to 10, a gorgeous ball!
