Lot Number: 70

Description: Superb Babe Ruth, Mel Ott, and Ernie Banks. "Let's Play Two"indeed. As noted in the aforementioned description of Lot #71, the offered autographed baseball is one of two such fine examples having been signed during an appearance on Babe Ruth's Spalding radio show. This specimen, however, is additionally signed by Hall of Fame member and fellow 500 Home Run Club member Ernie Banks. Ruth has again occupied the sweet spot with a resounding blue fountain pen signature with Mel Ott positioned in black ink on the panel above. At a later date, Ernie Banks was asked to sign the ball and did so adding the date of 1978 in blue ink. Ruth signature rates 8/9, Ott a 9/10, and Banks a 9/10 as well. The F.Frick NL ball itself remains unused with some very light age toning and a few minute areas of soiling mentioned for accuracy only. Interesting and unique signed baseball which would be a perfect example on which to obtain additional significant 500 HR club member signatures. Includes LOA from JSA: Ball: EX-MT, Signatures: Range NM-NM/MT

Estimated Price Range: ($10,000-$15,000)
