Description
Three hundred wins is the hallmark of any truly great pitching career. While this club may not have any new members in a long time, the hurlers represented on this ONL (White) ball could set down the opposition with ease. Those 7 members of the 300 Win Club who signed it include: Tom Seaver on the sweet spot, Warren Spahn, Don Sutton, Phil Niekro, Early Wynn, Gaylord Perry and Steve Carlton. The autographs range from “8-9” in strength. The baseball itself shows mild toning from age and some mild stamping ink transfer.

This ball is from one of the largest and most comprehensive collections of autographed baseballs in the world. Altogether they were easily displayable in custom shelf form and alphabetically displayed nonetheless. The choice of medium was visually easy for the encyclopedic collector who put these together. It took several decades to amass these rare autographs of the most prominent entertainers, historical figures, and sports players. It proved quite difficult to acquire autographs of non-ballplayers on such an odd object (a baseball) but diligence proved otherwise and that it’s possible. So, now with the collection complete and his shelves empty there’s only one thing left to do….bid on this item and start the challenge to see how far you can take it.
