Lot 766: 500 Home Run Hitters Signed Baseball Signed By 13 Including Mark McGwire and Eddie Murray

ITEM DESCRIPTION

This awesome ball bearing a lucky 13 signatures of 500 Home Run Club members is a real catch -- something that regularly evaded scores of outfielders when these distinguished gentlemen made the ball disappear from sight. The grabber here is that most signed balls from the ever-expanding “club” that are readily available generally boast 11 signatures, so this one is primo, with a cast that includes Mantle & Williams on the SS, Aaron, Mantle, Mays, Robinson, Jackson, Killebrew, Banks, Mathews, Schmidt, and two more recent members, Murray and McGwire. Signatures average 9/10 while OAL (Brown) ball is snow white with two areas of light discoloration lowering its final grade to a very enviable and highly desirable NRMT. It is high, it is far, and it’ll soon be gone.
