This Official National League (Giles) baseball carries signatures from all six members of the 1968 World Series umpiring crew. The Fall Classic that year featured one of the most storied pitching performances in baseball history — Bob Gibson's dominant Cardinals facing the Detroit Tigers — and these arbiters had a front-row seat to every call.
Signed in blue and red ballpoint across a Spalding Cushioned Cork Center ONL baseball with the Warren Giles facsimile, the autographs include Doug Harvey, "Jim" Honochick, Tom Gorman, Bill Haller, Stan Landes, and Bill Kinnamon — a remarkable assemblage of the men who managed one of the great Fall Classics. Doug Harvey, later inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame as a "baseball legend" of umpiring, anchors the panel and is perhaps the most significant signature of the group.
The ball shows expected vintage wear consistent with age but retains clean legibility on all six signatures. Authentication is provided by JSA Letter of Authenticity, confirming each autograph. A truly specialized offering for the serious collector of umpiring history, postseason memorabilia, or 1960s baseball artifacts.
