105) EDD ROUSH SINGLE SIGNED BASEBALL AND PERSONAL HANDWRITTEN NOTE TO ROUSH FROM JOE DiMAGGIO, ONE OF THE LAST BASEBALLS AUTOGRAPHED BY EDD ROUSH Offered here are a pair of signed items truly unique in nature and association. One is an official National League Bart Giamatti baseball autographed on the sweet spot in fine tip blue sharpie and is accompanied by a "get well" handwritten note TO ROUSH written and signed by JOE DiMAGGIO. Truly amazing story of how these items were acquired. In 1987 a young lady wrote to Hall of Famer Edd Roush (additional information regarding name etc will be provided to buyer) and sent this Official Bart Giamatti National League Baseball. The "window" in which Edd Roush could have signed this type of ball is small as it was only manufactured between 1986-89, with Roush dying early in 1988. She included a return address box and information about her autograph collection. Not knowing that Roush had been in fading health. When she recieved the baseball back signed by Roush he included a handwritten note clipped from a letter that had been written to him personally and signed by Joe DiMaggio to add to her collection. The note measures nearly 2x8 and reads as follows "EDD, Glad to hear your on the mend and of course my very best wishes go out to you and that the sun will always shine, JOE DiMAGGIO" The note is written and signed in blue fine tip sharpie. The signature of Roush on the sweet spot is in an extremely labored hand but VERY bold and the baseball itself exhibits very light shading and toning. Single signed Edd Roush baseballs are uncommonly scarce as he died early in 1988 prior to the advent of card show appearances. Plagued by health problems the last several years of his life , he was an avid signer through the mail but these were mostly flats and 3x5's. In this gesture of generosity Roush not only returns the baseball to the young collector signed but includes a signed portion of DiMaggio's handwritten letter to him. On March 21st 1988 Edd Roush died shortly after attending a spring training game in Bradenton Florida and by my own and the original collectors calculations less than 6 months after this baseball had been signed. Roush won the batting title in 1917 & 1919 and is best remembered as a member of the World Champion 1919 Reds and was the batting hero of the ill fated 1919 World Series. He was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1962. True DiMaggio handwritten items of any kind are far rarer than one would think especially written to a fellow Hall of Famer. The Yankees superstar won the Most Valuable Player Award in 1939, 1941 & 1947 and was a 13 time all star. Best remembered for his record setting 56 game hitting streak. He was inducted into the baseball Hall of Fame in 1955 and died in 1999. One of the most unique pairings I have ever offered. Take Both for $450.00
