About a month ago, my wife was digging through the appropriately nicknamed "Black Hole" in her parent's house to see if there was anything of value before the junk haulers get called. She stumbled upon a box with old baseballs rattling around in it. As near as we can tell, from conversations with her uncle, these probably originated with her great-grandfather and were passed through the family of NY Giants fans.
Among the lot are:
- A solo-signed Gehrig on what I think is an 1934-1939 official AL ball
- A '31 tour of japan ball with 10 readable signatures
- A '28 or similar ball signed by the Giants
Pictures are in the linked PDF.
I'm completely new to sports memorabilia. We're planning to hang onto these given their tie to the family, but I'm planning to get them authenticated.
Do the balls all look legit? If there are any signatures you can recognize on Giants ball, I'd like to hear it. The thing is in pretty bad shape.
