Lot 1289: 1954 World Series Game Used Baseball
ITEM DESCRIPTION
|
||||||||||||
A real rarity: a World Series ball signed by the six "men in blue" who oversaw the Giants' sweep of the Indians -- including Hall of Famers Jocko Conlon and Al Barlick. OAL (Harridge) ball carries Conlon's marker above the hand-written inscription "World Series Umpires 1954," while Barlick, Lon Warneke and Charlie Berry (trivia buffs note: he was also the head linesman in the 1958 Colts-Giants championship game) are on one panel and John Stevens on another. Signatures are in light blue ink and EX, as is the ball which is toned to a nice even gold with a few white specks.
