Braves signed ball--Aaron, et. al. value?
Posted By: <b>Mike Ernst</b><p>A parishioner walked into my office yesterday with a signed ball, wondering about its value. Can you help me help him?<br><br>The ball is a Spalding, official NL, with Warren Giles "signature". It is signed in blue ink by Hank Aaron, Ernie Johnson, Wes Covington, Frank Torre, Del Rice, Del Crandall, and Bob Buhl.<br><br>Signatures are all clear and in good shape--ball may have been game used, but is about an 8.5.<br><br>Thanks for your help!<br><br>Forgot to add--Aaaron did not sign on the sweet spot (there is nothing on the sweet spot)--that implies to me that it was earlier in his career.<br>(This had to be in the 56-59 era, based on when the signatories were with the Braves.) <br><br>
