Monty Stratton was a Major League pitcher for the Chicago White Sox who lost his right leg in a hunting accident and then made an amazing comeback to pitch in the minor leagues with an artificial leg. A successful Hollywood film was made of Stratton's life, starring Jimmy Stewart as the hurler. Presented is a dual-signed baseball, with signatures by both Jimmy Stewart and Monty Stratton. A 6'5" right-hander, Stratton pitched for the White Sox from 1934-38. His best two seasons in the Major Leagues were his final two years. Stratton was 15-5, with a 2.40 ERA and five shutouts in '37, and he made the American League All-Star Team. In '38, Stratton went 15-9 with a 4.01 ERA, and he finished 15th in AL MVP voting. In November of 1938, Stratton was hunting rabbits when he fell, and the shotgun that he was carrying discharged, with the shotgun pellets entering his right leg and shattering an artery. After his amputation, Stratton pitched batting practice for the Chicago White Sox and stayed active in baseball. Then, from 1946-53, Stratton pitched in the minor leagues. His greatest difficultly as a pitcher became fielding the bunts that the opposition dropped down against him. Stratton pitched in the minor leagues through 1953. The Stratton Story also starred June Allyson as Ethel, Stratton's wide; Frank Morgan as Barney Wile; and Agnes Moorehead as Ma Stratton. Some of the movie's shooting locations included: Wrigley Field in Los Angeles (sic), Comiskey Park in Chicago, and Gilmore Field, home of the Hollywood Stars of the Pacific Coast League. The Stratton Story was a financial success, and it won an Academy Award for Best Original Story. The offered baseball is a Special League baseball, manufactured by Watco, of Richmond, Virginia. The baseball comes from the estate of Mace Neufeld, a movie producer and writer. The ball features a very faint signature from Monty Stratton as well as a personalized autograph from Stewart. The Academy Award winning actor (for The Philadelphia Story) used a ballpoint pen, with blue ink to write, "To Kenneth Cloach[?] Sincerely Jimmy Stewart." The dual-signed baseball makes an unusual autograph combination by having the signatures of both a noted Major Leaguer and the superstar actor who portrayed his life, on the same baseball. The dual-signed ball comes with a PSA LOA.
