ITEM DESCRIPTION

||||||||||||
OAL (Harridge) baseball is blessed by the holiest of names. Babe Ruth, forever engrained into the minds of baseball enthusiasts anywhere on the planet as not merely a man, but a god, who changed the face of the game forever. With a never-before-witnessed skill and natural ability, the great Bambino brought the game to a new level, demonstrating the closest thing to perfection the National American Pastime ever saw. Considered the defining relic of the man who redefined the game, this single signed baseball is simply spectacular. Sweet spot signature is written in nice black fountain pen, slightly faded in a couple spots, rating a 7.5-8 out of a possible 10. Small blemish to the left of the signature looks to have been cleaned. Other blemishes on the ball indicate that some ink writing may have been erased. Ball itself shows some use, overall EX. Others may come and go, but Ruth is forever.
