Rare ball covered with the signatures of the 1954 Orioles, who marked the return of baseball to Baltimore after a half century absence -- although by any other name the ertswhile St. Louis Browns still were going nowhere on the baseball map, finishing 54-100. Among the 25 signatures are manager Jimmie Dykes on the SS, Ed Waitkus, Clint Courtney, Harry Brecheen, Don Larsen, Gil Coan, Howie Fox, etc. Signatures run 7 to 9. OAL (Harridge) ball is smooth and creamy with very few flaws.
