1957 New York Yankees signed baseball
 

1957 American League Champions New York Yankee team signed Official American League baseball with 27 signatures including Mickey Mantle, Ford, Howard, Berra, Slaughter, Martin, Kubek, Larsen and more. There is no signature on the sweet spot of this baseball. The Casey Stengel signature on this ball is a clubhouse signature. Stengel, for some reason, did not like to sign Yankee team baseballs and his authentic signature almost never appears on a Yankee team ball. Most times there is not even a clubhouse Stengel on a Yankee baseball. Ball is clean, very nice color, strong signatures. There is a small nick in the ball touching the o in Ed Ford and one touching the B in Bob Grim. There are a couple of small nicks on the American League logo. Shine on pictures of ball is from my flash camera. $1200 + $25 UPS insured.

fill me in whats a clubhouse signature?

A clubhouse signature is the very common practice of a clubhouse attendant signing for a player or manager on a baseball.
When buying team signed baseballs some sellers conveniently forget to mention which signatures are clubhouse signatures.
Mantle signatures are very rare on team signed baseballs once he became a star.
Stengel almost never signed Yankee baseballs yet he signed every Met ball I have ever seen when he was Mets mgr.
Brooklyn Dodgers team signed baseballs often have some or all signatures coming from a clubhouse attendant.
Be careful out there.
