This ball comes to us from the personal collection of popular Yankee Johnny Blanchard, who hit two home runs and batted .400 for the entire 1961 World Series. Rawlings (Haiti) OAL (Brown) baseball signed in blue ink by Yankees Roger Maris on the sweet spot, HOFers Mickey Mantle, Whitey Ford and Enos Slaughter, Moose Skowron, Hank Bauer and Johnny Blanchard. Ball shows some spotting with signatures that grade from 8 to 9. Accompanied by a LOA from JSA. This lot was to be accompanied by a LOA from Johnny Blanchard, but due to his recent passing, will not include his LOA.
