Offered here is one of the most rare and spectacular autographed Boston Red Sox theme baseballs we have ever encountered. Ideally displayed on isolated areas of its surface are the signatures of the three all-time greatest Boston Red Sox sluggers - Babe Ruth Ted Williams and Jimmie Foxx. This is the only ball we have ever seen signed solely by this trio and the condition just happens to be superb. It is an official AL (Harridge) ball and was likely signed by all three in the early 1940's when Williams and Foxx were striking fear into the hearts of opposing pitchers. The signatures are ideally placed with a blazing Ruth signature (8-9/10) on the sweet spot and strong Willams (7-8/10) and Foxx (7/10) autographs on separate panels. The ball itself is relatively clean with only mild toning and strong manufacturer's stampings. This is an exceptionally rare signature combination and a fantastic Red Sox themed ball. Somebody either had amazing forethought or amazing luck to limit the autographs on the ball to this trio alone. Includes full LOAs from both PSA/DNA and JSA.
