The Coach's had one. even had Shoeless Joe, all of the other Black Sox, Commy and Ring Lardner on it. Authenticity was a slight issue tho:):)

I know of one ball signed by the entire 1919 Sox team.
It's dated October 9,1919, the final day of the 1919
World Series. The ball was auctioned in 2000. See link:

I have the Mastro catalog with photos of the ball, but my
computer isn't working. Perhaps someone on the forum can
post a scan of the ball.

Thanks Erik. If it's legit, that would be an incredible piece of baseball history.
I'll have to fish out my catalogue and check it out.

I happened to see a 1919 Reds ball on the Antiques Roadshow the other night. It was a dang cool item and a piece of history in my opinion.

Yes, I know you were asking about a Sox ball but it would be an incredible piece to find a Sox ball to go with the Reds ball that was on the show.
