You heard of the Babe. Now get acquainted with the babes. The women who played professional baseball to keep war-occupied America entertained, autographed a baseball that is just as cool for its imprints as its 23 signatures (9/10). The EX horsehide is stamped with "Official Girls' Base Ball" and "All-American Girls Prof. Base Ball League" and the DoubleHeader manufacturer's logo.Signatures include: Gloria "Cordie" Cordes; "Snookie" Harrell-Doyle; "Beans" Risigner; Helen "Gig" Smith; Annabelle "Lefty" Lee and Betty "Moe" Trezza. Rounding out this tough-to-get collection is the official movie poster (EX) of the 1992 film about women's pro ball, "A League of Their Own," starring Tom Hanks, Geena Davis and Madonna. It was obtained from the theater manager and signed by 78 real former players at a reunion including: Mary "Prattie" Pratt; Maddy English; Doris "Cookie" Cook and Thelma "Tiby" Eisen.Hanks' Jimmy Dugan from the film uttered the famous words "There's no crying in baseball." But you are allowed tears of joy for seizing a slice of baseball his--, um, herstory.
