MarkThe provenance and Harridge Ball both are positives... perhaps you guys are correct in being optimistic.
It is just so rare to find an "untouched" example like this... especially on Ebay (as opposed to an REA, Mastro, Hunt or Lelands).
If the ball is good, the seller is hurting himself by not having Spence or PSA Authentication.
And even lower marks for Global, for providing such a minimal (cheap) Certificate... especially for a piece of this magnitude. That certificate might work for a Feller or Spahn signed ball. But one of the premier Ruth examples in the world (if it's real) is at least worthy of a real letter, inclusive of a photo.
