Hi everyone, I was looking for advice on these baseballs I picked up at an storage unit sale.
These are the first signed balls that I have owned, at first I thought what a shame that people used pencil and pen, then after digging around on here, I realized the autographs were faded. Both baseballs look to contain the same autographs. Pictures here, I tried to link them but they were huge and I didn't know how to resize them for this post. https://imgur.com/a/1ijZ60U The ones I can read Mike Garbark Enos Slaughter Moose Skowron Franke Torre Del Crandall Im guessing it came from maybe this event? Although the ball brand is different. Which means among the faded autos are Mantle, Eddie Matthews and other hof players. https://sports.ha.com/itm/baseball-c.../50013-57499.s I read that maybe JSA can use a light to authenticate the faded autographs but would it be worth it? Anything that I can do to see read the faded signatures? I was thinking about keeping one and selling the other but if both balls are likely to fade over time maybe I should sell both? All the rest of my autos are on cards and comics. Thanks for your time, and thanks to Leon for giving me access so I could ask these questions. Last edited by Enternal; 02-12-2021 at 06:30 AM. |

Also have Clete Boyer, Dave Harris visible.
Probably a ball someone brought to the park to get signed. I don't see any that look like Mantle in the pictures you uploaded.

It looks like a bunch of random Braves and Yankees. There's a Billy Martin and Lefty Gomez. There are also some guys here who didn't actually play together, so the Old Timers game theory makes sense.

Thanks for taking a look. And thanks for help reading the signatures on there.
It looks like the old timers day between 1970-73 feature braves and yankees. Any thoughts on if a blacklight or other light might help me read the rest of the balls? |
