Price Realized: $3,346.56
Auction Date:4/28/2006 9:00 PM EST

20 blue fountain pen signatures on an Official International League baseball from the early 1930's, highlighted by Cy Young, Ed Walsh, Dave Bancroft, Al Schacht, Rube Oldring, Nick Altrock, Ed Rommel, Tim Jordan, Wyatt Lee, Paul Krichell, E.D. Zimmerman, Jimmy Cockman, Gus Getz, Bill Zimmerman and Johnny Enzman. Clear sigs range from 6-9, with most being 7s. The well-scripted example of Young is an 8, Walsh and Bancroft are 7s. Overall Ex-Mt. President of the league Charles H. Knappe's facsimile sig is on a panel as well. Our guess is this is a reunion ball of some kind, with many players’ autographs you never see on an orb.
