Local History
So I picked this ball up off ebay. reason i bought it because it deals witht he baseball history around where i live.
In the Summer of 1942, the NY Yankees visited their minor league team that played in Amsterdam NY. Team was called the Amsterdam Rugmakers, I actually live 5 minutes from where the old ball park was. Story was that the park burned down 8 days before the game was to be played, but the town was able to rebuild most of the stadium before the Yankees showed up. So I bought this ball cause it dealt with the game. Not sure if it's a game ball or not. Because the Yankees vs Rugmakers and 1942 is pre-printed and a Yankee team signed one sold in huggins. Best thing was I noticed it was signed by Charlie Keller, the listing said nothing about a autograph.
