The last of the .400 hitters return, with these (2) single-signed baseballs. In 1930, Bill Terry of the New York Giants finished the season with a .401 batting average, and remains the last National League player to hit the mark. His "Junior Circuit" counterpart is Ted Williams, who recorded a .406 average in 1941, and stands as the last American League player to reach the lofty plateau. These legendary hitters are joined in the record books for their remarkable batting prowess, and here they are joined by a pair of prime autographs. Featured are: Ted Williams ("8-9") on the sweet spot of a MacGregor Official 97 League ball (EX-MT); and Bill Terry ("9") with "HOF, 1930, 401" inscriptions on the sweet spot of an ONL/Giamatti ball (NM). Auction LOA from JSA.
