Very rare and historic Official American League (Johnson) game used ball dates to the 1912 World Series between the New York Giants and Boston Red Sox. Extensive use is displayed and New York, Boston, and World Series are written on the ball with other illegible writing. The 1912 series is noted as being one of the most exciting ever and stands as the only scheduled 7-game series to finish in eight games, with one called due to darkness and replayed in its entirety; Boston prevailed in "Game 8" to take a 4-3 series win.
