Looking to Sell or Trade My 1949 Redsox Team Autographed Ball

Ball Type: Official American League Ball, but the stamping is very faded

Signatures:
Hofers: Ted Williams, Kiki Cuyler, Joe McCarthy, Earl Combs, Bobby Doerr
The rest: earl johnson, ellis kinder,chuck stobbs, mel parnell,tommy o'brien, harry dorish, dave ferris, merril combs, johnny pesky, al zarilla, walt masterson, tex hughson, vern stephens, birdie tebbets, dom dimaggio, bob doerr, vern stephens, billy goodman, frank quinn, matt batts, Paul Schreiber

Condition: Ball is toned & has some spotting but still has 23 of 25 legible signatures (Vern Stephens and Al Zarilla are light)

The Story: I picked this up from a gent in Ohio. It was his mothers ball that she recieved while attending a yankees game with her father in the late 1940's... He was apparently an acquantance of one of the coaches (paul Schreiber) who interestingly enough holds the record for longest amound of time between major league starts (22 years). I am told that this is a tough one to find considering that the coaches (mccarthy, cuyler, combs, schreiber) have all signed... I date the ball at 1949 as it is the only year Hofer Kiki Cuyler coached for the sox (he unfortunately passed of a heart attack prior to the 1950 season). What even neater about this piece is that it is from the year Ted Williams took home the MVP award, and missed the Triple Crown by .0002 to George Kell

Ideally looking for trade, but would be open to cash offers as well... I like beat up HOF T Cards, and pre 50's HOF autographed cuts and 3x5's...

Please PM Me if you have an interest.

Best Regards & Happy New Year!
