I need some help with an old baseball and a uniform
Hello, a couple of days ago, I was looking at a non-sport collection from a nice lady. We came to an agreement on a price, and as I was leaving she said "I also have an old baseball that you might want to look at.
It has a lot of toning and wear. I don't know anything about vintage baseballs, so I was researching it, and it seems that it may be (maybe) a John Heydler Spaulding ball from 1928 to 1933.
Can anyone confirm whether or not I am correct, because I really don't know. I would also like a rough estimate of the value, if any. The ball also has an autograph. I didn't have a loupe with me and I will have to go back and check it more thoroughly. This lady seems to be struggling financially, and I overpaid for the non sports cards just to help her out. I would love to be able to buy the ball from her to help her out.
Please excuse my crappy pictures.
She also has a baseball uniform that belonged to her dad, who played on a high school team in the 1940's. It is a beautiful, heavy sweater, a jersey, a pair of pants, and a pair of boxer shorts. Again, I will have to go back to get some better photos.
Thanks, Rick
