Exquisite Collection of Signed Baseballs: A Tribute to Legends
An Unparalleled Offering
We are thrilled to present an exceptional collection of three “Rawlings” manufactured baseballs, each a testament to the rich history and legacy of baseball. This remarkable set includes two Official American League (OAL) baseballs and one Major League Baseball (MLB) ball, each signed by iconic figures in the world of sports and politics.
Signatures of Distinction
These baseballs are adorned with signatures that resonate with historical significance and personal achievement:
- Bud Selig: The MLB baseball is graced with the signature of Bud Selig, the former Commissioner of Major League Baseball, whose tenure was marked by transformative changes in the sport.
- Earl Weaver: One of the OAL baseballs bears the autograph of Earl Weaver, the legendary manager of the Baltimore Orioles, known for his strategic brilliance and fiery passion.
- Gerald Ford: The second OAL baseball is signed by Gerald Ford, the 38th President of the United States, adding a unique political dimension to this collection.
