I have this US Soccer ball that i have had for many years
It has a authentication sticker on it but no paperwork.
Was hoping from the marking someone would know which company authenticated it.
It seems to have a large A in the hologram.
I know this is a long shot but figured this would be the place to ask.
I think the ball is from around 1998 if that helps also.
It is signed by all the members of some team back then.
Thanks
Andy

Could be UDA.

Judging by the "A" in the background of the hologram, it appears to be UDA. However, their database only goes back so far, so don't be surprised if nothing pops up.

Thanks for your help guys...
It said to email them if something was older then 2002...
So i already sent them the information, hopefully i hear back from them next week.
Thanks again.

Sometimes it takes a while to hear back. I have a Mickey Mantle large signed photo with their sticker on it that they verified for me. Be patient and they will respond. Jason

So...

"Hello,

We can confirm the authenticity of hologram #AUE41119 US Men’s signed Soccer Ball as authentic.

Thank You Very Much,
The Upper Deck Customer Care"

Doesn't really help much dating it or assisting with who is on the ball. I called them and the guy was even less help then the email i received.
