Incredible Old Baseballs Need Some Insight
These showed up at an auction in a box lot. Anyone have any idea what they are from. The script on them is amazing . One of the balls has a makers mark but its very slight and I cant make out anything with a loupe. Any help with the hsitory of them, value, etc..... would be greatly appreciated. Ive been looking them up for about 2 hrs now and have nothing concrete.

Baseballs
I think they are trophy balls out of massachusetts. Worcester academy vs cushing academy (two of the
Oldest private schools in the state) and worcester academy vs springfield college (ma) Any other clues in the box lot? |

None at all , they were in a lot with stuff from a naval aviator that was from that area. I think your spot on with the schools......

Can't answer for Bob, but I use this page alot:
https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/ (Use the advanced search tab for specific date) The word match search works very well I think.
