Description: There is no surname coupling more synonymous with triumph than any pair in the annals of baseball than Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig, as the famed duo tamed American League and World Series opponents with unprecedented regularity during their legendary careers in the Bronx. While a falling-out brought an abrupt finish to what had been a strong friendship just before Ruth's departure, the two remain inseparable likenesses in American culture – first, as fence-clearing barnstorming comrades and in the end, in the unforgettable embrace as Gehrig neared his demise. The offered sphere acts as an attractive canvas for the signatures of both Hall of Fame and New York Yankees legends. Presented here is a Spalding Official Cork Center League ball that features bold stampings and vibrant, alternating red and blue laces. Light toning affects portions of the ball but not to the detriment of the coveted autographs. In his customary occupancy of the sweet spot, Babe Ruth's black ink autograph is light but still eminently presentable, having been signed with a black steel-tipped fountain pen. Compliant with "second billing" on an adjacent west panel, Lou Gehrig has signed his name in similar quality and instrument as his more celebrated teammate. A superb duo, with either scripting displaying well as a single, if desired. Best yet, this historic ball has been authenticated by two companies as this ball comes with LOAs from PSA/DNA (AC06943) and SGC (AA10314). Please note there is a screw hole on the backside of the baseball. Thanks.
