What's more magical than a Babe Ruth-signed baseball? Perhaps no item in sports holds so much allure and majesty than the Bambino's name on a horsehide sphere, 714 of which he whacked over outfield fences. In Ruthian fashion, he codified this handsome, well toned Wilson Official American League W5000 Baseball (Chase) with a flourish, signing on the sweet spot in large letters with a blue fountain pen. As oversized as the man himself was, the signature may be a tad faded but packs plenty of Ruth magic, rating a readable 6. The ball comes with a PSA letter of authenticity.
