Red Sox autographed baseball from 1954?

The fact that both balls have many of the signatures (like the Williams and Agganis, for example) in the identical spots had me assuming that they would've been signed at the same time, like they were all lined up in the locker room for players to sign one day.

But the fact that certain players are on each ball and not on the other would discourage that theory.

Great ball you have, and good luck with it!

It's very common for a player to sign in a favorite spot on a team ball, FWIW...
Nothing unusual about that.

If your plan is to consign it or sell it DONT pay to have it authenticated yourself, the auction house will do it. If you want to keep it in the family thats another story. I still wouldn't pay the money as you will get a better opinion on here with the colelctive knowledge than any one of the companies can offer you and have peace of mind in knowing its real and not have to pay a couple hundred bucks or more to have people tell you what you already know.

Different people will offer an alternative opinion for sure but authentication for this item is almost certainly a waste of money unless you are hell-bent on selling it through ebay in which case that would help get top dollar but would be a poor decision as a venue to sell it (again my opinion).
