I also like the way you can put a baseball in a cube and stack them. I read article a while back where Joe Dimaggio was at some sort of dinner function or another where he got Pope John Paul to sign a baseball for him. When the Pope questioned him about it he also said something to the fact that signed baseballs are part of americana. Guessing a ball like that would be a big ticket item at an aution. Me and my son were at a baseball little leuge tournament that Ali must have been sponsoring a team all I could find was a baseball to have signed. had to sell for extra $$ when I got divorsed
