Exquisite Baseball Memorabilia: Don Drysdale and Don Newcombe Signed Baseballs

A Tribute to Baseball Legends

In the realm of baseball memorabilia, few items capture the essence of the sport’s storied history like signed baseballs from Hall of Famers. Here, we present two remarkable pieces that pay homage to the legendary careers of Don Drysdale and Don Newcombe, both of whom left an indelible mark on Major League Baseball.

Don Drysdale: A Pitching Icon

The first item is a “Rawlings” manufactured ONL Giamatti baseball, graced by the signature of the illustrious Don Drysdale. Known for his fierce competitive spirit and exceptional pitching prowess, Drysdale was a 9-time All-Star and a Cy Young Award winner. His signature, elegantly inscribed in blue ink on the sweet spot, is a testament to his enduring legacy. In our expert opinion, the signature rates a near-perfect 10, a reflection of its pristine condition.

This baseball is in excellent (EX) condition, with some toning that adds character and authenticity to this cherished artifact. Accompanying this piece is a 1958 Don Drysdale TOPPS baseball card, elegantly displayed on a wooden stand, further enhancing its collectible appeal.

Don Newcombe: A Trailblazer in Baseball

Complementing the Drysdale baseball is another gem: a “Rawlings” manufactured ONL White baseball signed by Don Newcombe. A 4-time All-Star, former NL MVP, and Cy Young Award winner, Newcombe’s contributions to the game are legendary. His signature, rendered in gold ink on the sweet spot, is a striking feature of this piece, and in our opinion, it rates an almost perfect 10.

The baseball is in mint (MNT) condition, a testament to its preservation and care. This exceptional item is accompanied by a Letter of Authenticity (LOA) from JSA, ensuring its provenance and significance in the world of sports memorabilia.
