Guesses on value old timers day ball
Every year the Joe DiMaggio children's hospital holds an old timers day game to raise $$$. I have gone several times since I was a kid, I haven't been to one since around 2010, but it was always a way to get lots of great autographs. This ball was used in the game, and is signed by players with whatever pen they had in their hand. So some are in sharpie, some in pen. The big auto is johnny mize in sharpie over the sweet spot side that says "official ball". This ball has to be over 25 years old and sharpie hasn't bleed or faded. Other deceased players include earl weaver, Paul blair. And it has guidry, gentry, bahnsen, rivers, kranepool, Garrett. There are 3 autos I can't figure out, the one under guidry (maybe Elliot?), the one above rivers (appears to be a Steve or Stan) and the one below Blair. I took pics of players i dont recognize and the 2 sweet spots, the other autos i mentioned are on ball too. Basically I think the value lies in the mize, but it on wrong sweet spot and its sharpie. Let me know what you guys think.
