In the late 90’s I was a sports memorabilia dealer part time and at the weekend market my table was next to the table where the stars autographed and that weekend it was Gates Brown who was a very nice soft spoken man.

Ball does have some yellowing on it but not uncommon for the year and has always been in a UV proof display


The product is a Gates Brown signed baseball, which was signed in person 35 years ago. This original autographed ball is from the Detroit Tigers baseball team and would make for a valuable collectible for fans of both the team and baseball in general. It is a unique item that holds historical significance, showcasing a piece of baseball memorabilia from a specific player and team.
