Once again, the Walt Alston Collection provides us with a gem of a ball. This near mint to mint, nearly snow white ONL Giles ball has been signed in blue ink by 26 members of the 1957 Brooklyn Dodgers including Alston (SS), Gil Hodges, Roy Campanella, and Sandy Koufax (pink ink), etc. The signatures are uniformly strong, rating 8 or 9. The superior quality of the ball and the signatures make it difficult to imagine a nicer example of a 1957 Dodgers ball.
