Christy Walsh Presentation ink blotter ball signed on the sweet spot by Hall of Fame manager Connie Mack. To the panel to the left the legendary John McGraw Clubhouse signature. To the right is Babe Ruth. The panel below has Gabby Street. The panel above has Art "Tilly" Shafer and one other unreadable due to lightness of signature. Mack is a strong 8/10 black ink McGraw 8/10 blue and Ruth 5/10 blue. Ball has been shellacked and over the years has darkened evenly. The shellacked has chipped off in a few places leaving small random white areas. Top of ink blotter stamped at one end "Compliments of Christy Walsh" with the other having the original recipient's name. Ball can be unscrewed from the ink blotter with the hole being on the bottom side with the Official American League stamping. John McGraw is Clubhouse signature.
Pre-certified by PSA/DNA.
