Offered is a vintage "Official" Spalding baseball that has been signed by 25 Hall of Famers including deceased stars Edd J Roush (sweet spot), Rube Marquard, George L. Kelly, Hank Greenberg, "Cool Papa" Bell, Charles Gehringer, Stanley Coveleski, Red Ruffing, Lloyd Waner, Earl Averill, Joe Cronin, Billy Herman, Burleigh Grimes, Bill Terry, Bowie Kuhn, Jocko Conlan, Buck Leonard, Waite Hoyt, and Judy Johnson. Joining them are Stan Musial, Ralph Kiner, Monte Irvin, Bob Feller, Yogi Berra, and one non-HOFer, Ted Page. The signatures are done in a variety of inks and rate between 7 and 10. They contrast beautifully with the evenly toned baseball. It can be dated to 1975 as Averill, Kiner, Herman, and Johnson were inducted that year and no signatures from later inductees appear on the ball. The autographs come with a letter from PSA/DNA.
