Based on the players who signed it, the program seems to be from a 1956 game between Toronto and Buffalo.

I really don't know why Froats is so rare, maybe because he only played one major league game, no one asked for his autograph. I got mine on an index card in 2011 and I've never seen another one for sale since. I love searched team signed items for these rare autos. I wish I had seen this for sale.

Thanks for the info Giovanni! I looked up Bill Froats, and his stats show he pitched about 80 games for Buffalo in the late 1950s. Team signed balls from that era aren't too rare. I wonder if he signed any?

Giovanni I am impressed! Your knowledge is amazing.

Now a question for you. Is that price reasonable?

Who knows why some things sell for incredible sums, and some things don't.

Some time ago I watched an eBay bidding frenzy for a Navy WW2 book entitled "Battle Report - Pearl Harbor to the Coral Sea". I just happened to have a copy that I bought from ABEbooks for $10. They bid it up to over $600. I contacted the runner-up, which eBay despises, and offered him my copy for $600. He sent me a cashiers check. I couldn't in good conscience cash it, so I sent him my copy and his cashiers check, with a letter asking why in the world would you be willing to pay $600 for an easily obtained book? Never got a reply.
