Official Rawlings American League baseball, signed in ballpoint on the sweet spot, “God bless you, M. Teresa MC.” A few small and very faint spots, otherwise very fine condition. Should Mother Teresa be canonized, a process that is well underway and whose fulfillment seems a virtual certainty, this item may well be the only example of its kind signed by a bona fide saint. It is, at any rate, one of the most unusual formats for the beloved Nobel Prize winner that you’ll ever encounter! Accompanied by the original mailing box used to solicit the signature (in exchange for a donation to the Missonaries of Charity) and the envelope used to wrap the ball (then inserted into the original mailing box and wrapped in brown paper) for its return to the donor. Box postmarked July 7, 1993 and with a registered stamp of CED Calcutta. R&R COA.
