Simply spectacular, this ball rates as the finest of its kind not only because of condition, but also for the fact that every autograph on the ball was signed by the players themselves and not by a clubhouse attendant. The Official National League (Frick) baseball is NM-MT and the stampings are crisp and bold, as 25 members of the 1955 World Champion Brooklyn Dodgers signed in blue ink, mostly rating 9/10. Alston and Herman are on the sweet spot, and other luminaries include: Koufax, Hodges, Podres, Loes, Snider, Gilliam, Shuba, Campanella, Kellert, Walker, Spooner, Borkowski, Hoak, Robinson, Furillo, Labine, Pitler, Hughes, Erskine, Newcombe, Amoros, Reese, Becker. It is PSA graded 8 overall - 7 autographs, 8 ball - and comes with PSA/DNA LOA. The 1955 Dodgers cruised to the National League pennant with 98 victories before beating the rival Yankees in a seven-game World Series, earning Brooklyn its first and only championship crown.
