An official All American Girls Professional Baseball League ball made by MacGregor Goldsmith. Unfortunately the side panel stamping with Max Carey's league president signature has worn away. It measures 11 inches in circumference which dates it to 1946-47 when pitching was still largely underhanded. When the league began in 1943, 12 inch balls were used. Gradually the balls were reduced in size until 9 inch baseballs were used during the league's last season in 1954.
