This Official American League ball, with a light coat shellac, has 28 of the 1937 World Champion New York Yankees signatures including Lou Gehrig and Joe McCarthy on one sweet spot and "1937 World Series Champions New York Yankees" on the other. Future Hall of Famers Bill Dickey, Red Ruffing, Lefty Gomez (2-0, 1.50 ERA in World Series), and Earle Combs are all signed on this ball as well. The '37 World Series had the Yankees battling cross town rivals the New York Giants, led by Mel Ott, who they defeated 4-1 for the sixth World Series title for New York. There is some light scuffing on the panel with Jake Powell and Joe Page. The signatures on this ball are very strong and average 8/10. The Lou Gehrig is a 9. This item comes with a letter of authenticity.
