Thanks Marty.. yea I thought that ball would get up to 9-10K.. so for 6500 I really feel it was a great deal....A funny story behind the bidding on the ball.. I was at the yankee game yesterday and the new stadium has a museum with a team signed ball from all 26 championship years... I was staring at these amazing balls from the 20's and 30's with Ruth and Gehrig, when I got the email notice on my phone that I had been out bid at 6000... so I just said screw it... they looked so nice behind that 6 inch glass at the museum.. so I place my bid that ended up winning the auction...from my phone while still in the museum
I only know of one babe ruth special ball so if you have an auto on of Babe on one of those balls then we share that in common.. was it a team signed ball or just Babe on it?... I would love to see a pic..
