Lot 578: 1954 New York Giants Team Signed Baseball

ITEM DESCRIPTION

 
Reserve: $300.00
Winning Bid: $475.06
Price Realized: $567.70
Auction Date:6/26/2005 9:00 PM EST

This '54 New York Giants team signed ball features a desirable Leo Durocher on the sweet spot with "1954 Giants" written above it. What's notable here is that it's a real Durocher marker, not the stamp that he frequently used when he couldn't be bothered to use a pen. 25 signatures in all from the world champions including Maglie, Irvin, Thompson, Hearn, Fitzsimmons, Mueller, Dark, Rhodes, Westrum, Taylor, Katt, Gomez, etc. No Willie Mays, though you could catch him at an appearance and likely acquire his signature on a ball signifying his only championship season. ONL (Giles) ball is EX+ with a nice even light golden tone and a slight patch of soiling on one panel.
