It has the autographs of Ty Cobb, Honus Wagner and Pete Rose. This is one baseball you do not want to take out for a catch. The three players combined for 12,220 hits and make the short list of baseball's greatest. Monumental if you think about it! Their handwriting is bold and legible -- Wagner on the sweet spot in green fountain pen (9-10/10), Rose in black felt tip (10/10) and Cobb in slightly faded black fountain pen (7-8/10) above the date "8/6/46." It took generations to collect the trio of signatures on this EX-MT "Official American Association" ball, but there is nothing minor-league about it.
