A rare Senators team with clout signed this ball -- in addition to the amazing Yankee duo of Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig. Official American League (Harridge) baseball features classic red and blue stitching and boasts a total of twelve enhanced black ink signatures. The 1930 Senators featured the Cooperstown-bound Joe Cronin, Sam Rice, Goose Goslin and then-manager Walter Johnson, all of whom applied pen to ball. The vintage signatures hark back to one of the high points in the Senators' history, as the 1930 squad finished second in the American League with a 94-60 record, ahead of even the hated Yankees. At least they could get together on a baseball. Overall the autographs are EX-MT, with note to aforementioned signature enhancement.
