From a Yankees pre-season game played at Fort Lauderdale Stadium in Florida., the David Jones/Commissioner ball exhibits apparent game-use. This was Roger Maris's final season with the Yankees, as he was traded to the St. Louis Cardinals before the 1967 campaign.
The creamy, lightly soiled Dixie Youth Baseball has bold, blue ink signatures (11) averaging (“8”). Full LOA from James Spence/JSA.
Notables include: Mantle (HOF), Ford (HOF), Maris, Keane, Stottlemyre, Bouton, Tresh, Hamilton, Bahnsen, Pepitone and one other.
Opening Bid $500.
