Campanella, Robinson, Furillo, Reese auto ball Heritage Auction
4 Attachment(s)
I won this ball in the Heritage Auction that just ended. Circa 1955 Jackie Robinson, Roy Campanella & Pee Wee Reese Signed "Get Well" Baseball. Four Bums send their best wishes for a swift recovery to a boy named Pete, who was surely a big Brooklyn Dodgers fan afterward if he hadn't been already. One Hall of Fame legend occupies each panel, with Carl Furillo taking the fourth, and Jackie shares his with a child's charming scrawl. The inscriptions and signatures range from 5/10 to 8/10, all very readily legible. The OAL (Harridge) baseball suggests possible World Series vintage. A wonderful relic exhibiting the huge heart of those beloved Boys of Summer. Auction LOA from James Spence Authentication. Asking 1100.00 shipped. Breaking even by the time I pay shipping. Thanks any questions email me at gosox59@msn.com
