Lot 23 | Rare GC Alexander Single Signed Ball (PSA/DNA 8 NM-MT)
Rare G.C. Alexander Single Signed Ball (PSA/DNA 8 NM-MT)

Lightly toned Frick NL baseball signed across the sweet spot by legendary Hall of Fame pitcher Grover Cleveland Alexander. Black fountain pen signature flows nicely across the sweet spot rating 9 out of 10. Ball has only a few very minor areas of surface wear with even general light age toning.

Old Pete remains one of the most storied hurlers in the history of the game and was inducted into the Hall of Fame during inaugural ceremonies in 1939 in Cooperstown. Alexander autographs on any medium are very tough and highly desirable in consideration of his passing in 1950 at the age of 63. Includes full LOAs from JSA and PSA/DNA (Ball: 7, Signature: 9, Overall: 8)
