Pretty looking 1961 Pittsburgh Pirates partial team signed Official National League baseball (Giles) with 18 autographs (no Clemente).  George Sisler is featured in bold 7-9/10 blue ball point pen on the sweet spot. Hall of famer Bill Mazeroski appears in the middle of a panel in dark blue 7-8/10 ball point pen. The ball presents VG with some toning throughout and enough white spots to keep the autographs popping. Great piece overall for the autograph collector. The autographs have been pre-certified by Beckett Authentication Services and Manager Murtaugh has been deemed a clubhouse pen.

Provenance: this ball comes from the collection of the son of George Vico, former Tigers 1B and longtime minor-leaguer.
