Outstanding craftsmanship and content in this pair of very scarce Ichiro Suzuki stat balls from Japan. Each is actually softball-sized; silver colored is 1997 and white is 1998. Words are in Japanese kanji but incredibly all of the information is actually embroidered individually, not written or painted. From top to bottom, each shows Ichiro's age at the time, number, record, award, and year. The backstory behind these unusual mementos is that Ichiro's father made a small quantity of these per year and they were given out as gifts. Included are plastic display stands.
