Ruth ball

It's personalized and it's not a single. I think 6500 is high for that.

Ok just throwing it out there for discussion. Had the ball not been personalized I am guessing a whole new price range yes?

Actually, I don't think personalization is as much of a determining factor as is the fact that it is not a single signed ball. If real, the fact that all of Ruth's writing is bold and clear, make this a very nice ball for the person who doesn't want to spend the big money on a real single that is as bold as this one.

I am only a collector of cards who has looked at thousands of Ruth sigs and that one looks good. I will defer to the other guys on value with or without the other sigs and it being personalized. For me, if I were buying it, the newer autos would scare me away more than it being personalized. But that is just me and auto collectors might like those. It's a personal thing .

I liked the fact it was bold. Dont see very many this affordable ruths this bold, My name being Mike I liked how it was personalized "To my pal Mike" although the last name not the same as mine but never seen another ruth signed for a "mike" Let alone one this bold. Only question is can my marrige withstand another ruth autograph? haha got a feeling its the ball or the wife. But now I think about it might not be all bad.....hahaha just kidding............i think
