Default SOLD BABE RUTH & Walter Johnson Signed Baseball (Enhanced)

I know to some any enhancement done to a signature is the kiss of death and do not want it, however to others its a chance to own a ball that was once held and signed by Babe Ruth, at a reduced rate. In the case here to pay 3K for a ball that displays as a 5K or 6K ball.

Not everyone can afford 5K or 6K and up (way up) for a decent looking Babe Ruth signature on a ball, so your options then are to get a brutally ugly looking one on Ebay for 3K or 4K......or take a chance on the 95% of non-certified balls on Ebay that "look good", but are fakes....or get some piece of mind here (one guaranteed authentic)..........and a beauty for the mantle.

Enhancement was done to the 1st B, 2nd B and the E, no enhancement done to the "Ruth" or the "Walter Johnson.

Also, the neat thing about this one is its on an Official American League Game Used Baseball, not the hundreds of Ruth signed balls on various random makes of balls. And...it has NO personalization (which usually is preferred without any). And...it is signed on the Sweet Spot!!!(always a HUGE bonus) And...it is signed by 2 members of the initial 5 Hall of Fame class. So it has a lot going for as well.

And people out there do pay up for baseballs that have had some enhancement, a few examples:

Default Thanks guys

Lowering to......


$3000 or best offer shipped


I've had some decent offers, and some interesting trade offers, so keep 'em coming.

Compare to what is on Ebay:

://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_odkw=babe+ruth+signed+ba+seball&_sop=15&_o sacat=0&_from=R40&_trksid=p2045573.m570.l1313.TR4. TRC0.A0.H1.Xbabe+ruth+signed+baseball.TRS2&_nkw=ba be+ruth+signed+baseball&_sacat=0



I don't think you get to as good looking of one until about $5500 and up.

Still available (Mark to your message below, yep it was sold pending payment, but the potential buyer was odd to say the least (wanted to pay me in 5 gift cards, too odd for me, red flags, had to abort, so ball is still available)

Congrats. I think I will really regret not having the money or trade material to offer for this ball. Ah well.
