A very large and bold black ink version of Babe Ruth's coveted signature appears on the west panel of this Reach Official American League (Harridge) baseball. The unused, slightly off-white and mildly toned surface of the baseball provides an ideal medium, with the autograph being displayed perfectly below a gorgeous inscription that reads, "With best regards to my friend Billy Brown from..."  With a signature rating an admirable 7/10 on an EX ball with only a couple of stains near the Reach stamping, this easily ranks in the upper echelon of Ruth singles with inscriptions we've encountered in a long while. Accompanied by a full LOA from PSA/DNA with an autograph grade of 7.
