Lot 1033: Nellie Fox's 1960 National League All Star Team Signed Baseball

ITEM DESCRIPTION

 
Reserve: $500.00
Winning Bid: $1,402.70
Price Realized: $1,676.23
Auction Date:8/28/2006 9:00 PM EST

American Leaguer and Chicago White Sox second baseman, Nellie Fox, owned this National League All-Star team-signed baseball, and subtly marks the orb himself with an encircled “A.S.” and “1960 N.L.”. You can’t blame the Hall of Famer for holding onto this ball; the National League won the doubleheader All-Star game(s) of 1960 (beating Fox and his American League teammates handily, 5-3 and 6-0), and by no surprise, considering the names bestowed upon this EX ball. Directly received from the Fox family, the Official National League (Giles) ball has Roberto Clemente (red ink), Ernie Banks (red ink), Hank Aaron, Vada Pinson, Fred Hutchinson, Stan Musial, Walt Alston, Ed Mathews, Bill Mazeroski, Orlando Cepeda, Willie Mays (very light), Dick Groat and more. Signatures average 6-7/10. The Clemente is a very strong 9/10. LOA.
