This is next year. Extremely nice signed baseball is quite clean and signed by a team who represents more than the sole Brooklyn Dodgers World Championship team, but a David and Goliath parable of modern times. Official National League (Giles) baseball is overall EX-MT, featuring 23 signatures with Jackie Robinson, Campanella, Alston, Snider, Reese, Walker, Amoros, Gilliam, Podres, Zimmer, Herman, Kellert, Spooner, Labine, Furillo, Erkine and more. Signatures in matching blue ink average 8/10 with the immortal "1955" written on the sweet spot in blue/red ink. All signatures are deemed authentic by PSA/DNA except for Koufax, Hodges, Roebuck. The Pitler signature is also partially enhanced. This baseball was obtained prior to a Brooklyn Dodgers game in that season of seasons in 1955 by iconic sportswriter Dick Young. The first writer to invade the clubhouse, his brash abrasive style was in both his writing and his attack. A member of the writer's wing of the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York. Comes with PSA LOA.
