Description

Signed baseball seekers score big with the acquisition of these (2) 1959 MLB All-Stars team-signed baseballs. The represented teams participated in the second All-Star Game of 1959, which was staged at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, on August 3, 1959. One ball is signed both the American League squad and the other is signed by the National League All-Stars. Both are stacked with big name signatures, including twenty Hall of Famers. Signature strength is generally satisfying, though a handful of autographs have softened over the years. Accompanying is a handsome program from this main stage event, which merits a grade of Ex-Mt.
