Description

In the second of back-to-back World Series with the Milwaukee Braves, the American League Champion New York Yankees enacted revenge from a season ago, with a clutch two-run homer hit by Bill Skowron late in Game 7, winning another exciting World Series. This near-white to white OAL (Harridge) Reach ball, with bold stampings, is signed in blue ink by 22 members of the 1958 New York Yankees World Series Champion team, which includes three Hall of Famers.

SWEET SPOT - Yogi Berra and Mickey Mantle (CH).
EAST PANEL - Bobby Richardson, Darrell Johnson, Al Ditmar, and Whitey Ford.
WEST PANEL - Harry Simpson, Hank Bauer, Andy Carey, and Sal Maglie.
NORTH PANEL - Tony Kubek, Bob Turley, Bob Grim, Marv Throneberry, Don Larsen, Ryne Duren, and Enos Slaughter.
SOUTH PANEL - Gil McDougald, Jerry Lumpe, Johnny Kucks, Bill 'Moose' Skowron, Norm Siebern, and Tom Sturdivant.

Signatures range in grade from ("6-8", a few better). All the stampings are light, with extraneous markings of "1958" written next to the presidential label and "42" on the Reach insignia. In addition, there is a light coating of shellac preserving the signatures, with a few light chips. The Mickey Mantle signature has been deemed a clubhouse variety. This is another outstanding New York Yankees team-signed ball from their heyday years.
