Thanks Steve, Paul and Curt for taking the time to respond and share your knowledge. I do appreciate it.

It is a cool ball. Sad that such a nice artifact has been allowed to fade so badly. I do see the School Boy Rowe autograph now that you point it out. I do believe that it is Hank Greenberg's and Hal Newhouser's signatures on the sweet spot even though they are very faded. It would make sense since both were the star players on the team. I also think, Steve, that you nailed the Archie McCain auto. You can see the "ain" at the end of the signature.

Does anyone know anything about the ball itself? I am not an expert. Most Reach baseballs that I have seen have American League or National League identifiers on the ball. This does not.

Also is it worth while to have the signatures professionally authenticated?

Thanks for your help.

Joe
