Can anyone help me date this baseball?
 

Had this ball for a few months now and am just getting around to it.

I am trying to date it, and have narrowed it down to 1926-35?

Any Ideas? Also a estimated value range? Thanks Fellas (and ladies).

Best I can do is to shave a couple years off the back end of your range. They moved to all red stitching in 1934, so this ball is between 1926-1933. Can you figure out the name of the International League President? Many search what years he was in the position and cross reference that with the 1926-1933 range and see if that might narrow it further.

Wouldn't the Patent # give away the year?

If it's the other thing, just be yourself and enjoy your time with the ball. No pressure.:D

Charles Knapp took over in 28. So 28-33?

Thanks for your help Tom!

Date of ball
 

The ball is 1928-1930.

JC Toole was president of the International League in 1928.

As far as I know, Charles H. Knapp was voted in as a sort of interim leader of the league for 1929, after the death of Toole in February, and was not made president officially until December of 1929.

If that is true, then the ball can be dated definitively to 1930 based on its stitching.
