This is an OFFICIAL MAJOR LEAGUE (Selig) Baseball signed by Baseball Hall of Famer, 5x All Star, 2x Cy Young Award winner, 3x Wins leader, author of a 1968 no hitter and former Giants, Indians, Rangers, Padres, Yankees, Braves, Mariners and Royals pitcher GAYLORD PERRY in black pen. The signature rates an 8/10. The ball itself is lightly toned with some moderate darker spotting throughout. Please look at pictures for further detail. I am happy to send/post more pictures upon request, if needed.
DID YOU KNOW? Perry reportedly approached the makers of Vaseline about endorsing the product and was allegedly rebuffed with a one-line postcard reading, "We soothe babies' backsides, not baseballs." Former manager Gene Mauch famously quipped "He should be in the Hall of Fame with a tube of K-Y Jelly attached to his plaque."
This ball was originally purchased through a reputable auction house and I will GUARANTEE THE AUTHENTICITY of the signature with a FULL money back promise if PSA or JSA happens to think otherwise. I have been collecting, buying and selling baseball autographs for close to 40 years and am considered an expert in the field. Take a look at the photos, consider my 100% POSITIVE feedback and BID WITH CONFIDENCE. Please also take a look at my other auctions for more great signed baseballs!
I price ALL of my baseballs to SELL...usually lower priced than all other comparable balls on eBay at the time of listing (seriously...check it out!). I do list with a "Best Offer" option as again, I am here to SELL these balls, even though I feel my initial pricing is fair. If you have a reasonable amount in mind, please send an offer. Worst thing that could happen is for me to decline the offer. If I counter the offer, it means we're close...let's work together to make it happen. Thanks for looking! Brandon
