Just like the legendary Yankee teams of the 1920s, this baseball is going to be hard to beat. In 1929, the Yanks' run of three straight titles came to an end when they finished second to the Philadelphia A's. They didn't go down without a fight, though, as they continued the franchise's signature display of offensive might by finishing in the top three in the A.L. in batting average, home runs and slugging. With over 20 signatures, this official American League (Barnard) baseball is very clean and slightly off white. The signatures vary in strength, but the Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig are 5/10. Others grade in the same neighborhood with some of lesser quality and include Combs, Durst, Bengough, Lazzeri, Durocher, Pennock, Dickey and more
