Presented is a great Hall of Famers single-signed baseball collection, including three (3) Joe DiMaggio signed baseballs. With a little imagination and position flexibility, plus the addition of a Hall of Fame shortstop, the eight Hall of Famers in the collection would make an amazing, fictitious starting lineup. DiMaggio, Willie Mays, and Henry Aaron make up the outfield representatives in this offering. Of course, in the mythical lineup that this collection presents, one of the center fielders, DiMaggio or Mays, would move to left field, with Aaron in right field. The infield in this collection is represented with three players who were primarily third basemen: Brooks Robinson, Eddie Mathews, and Wade Boggs. Robinson won 16 consecutive Gold Gloves at third base, and both Boggs and Mathews played some first base; use Boggs or Mathews at first, the other one at second, and add a shortstop. Even without a shortstop, this fanciful infield had 8,173 hits and 898 home runs. Yogi Berra represents the catchers, a 3-time AL MVP and 10-time World Champion. Jim Palmer is the mythical pitcher for this collection: The right-hander had a career 268-152 record, with a 2.86 ERA, and three Cy Young Awards. 

Each baseball is signed in ink on the sweet spot. Eddie Mathews added the inscription "HOF '78." Brooks Robinson added the inscription "HOF 1983." All three of the DiMaggio signed baseballs come with a PSA LOA for the signature. Two of the DiMaggio signed balls have some light stains, with stains partly affecting both signatures. The third DiMaggio signed ball has more significant staining, including over the signature, which is still clearly visible. The Berra, Mathews, and Boggs signed balls have some stains that slightly impact the signatures. The Aaron signed ball has an overall slight darkening. The signatures average 8/10. Aside from the aforementioned stains and darkening, the baseballs are in EXCELLENT condition. The eight Hall of Famers who signed these baseballs make a great pantheon of talent and nearly a complete starting lineup of a mythical team of Hall of Famers. These signed baseballs will add amazing clout to any sports collection.
