The Yankees swept the series, outscoring the Cards 27-10 with Ruth and Gehirg combining for 7 home runs and 16 hits in 27 at bats, a .593 batting average! A very sharp signature of Babe Ruth commands the sweet spot, along with Chick Hafey, while Lou Gehrig appears on a side panel, two signatures down from Frankie Frisch and two up from Rogers Hornsby. Yeah, that's a party! But the hits just keep on coming as additional signatures, some of them very elusive in the autograph world, include Herb Pennock, Leo Durocher, Rabbit Maranville, Jesse Haines, and Tony Lazzeri, and many more.

Zachary, J. Grabowski, F. Heimach).The ball includes 24 signatures of which Half are Hall Of Famers! This is a one-of-a-kind item that deserves a prominent place in an advanced collection!
