Description
An Official Major League Baseball featuring the Bud Selig commissioner stamp and the MLB logo. The ball features multiple hand-signed blue/black ink signatures from a professional roster. Visible signatures indicate a mid-2000s era team ball. The leather shows light natural toning and ink exhibits minor fading typical of age.
Key Features
Official MLB game-spec ball; features multiple player signatures including star infielder Mark Teixeira; Bud Selig era branding.
Authenticity Indicators
Correct Bud Selig 'Official Major League Baseball' stamp; secondary MLB logo print quality; pen stroke variation suggests hand-signed rather than stamp-printed. Confidence: High for being a real signed ball, Medium for individual signature verification without LoA.
Flaws to Note
Significant ink fading on several signatures; surface yellowing/toning on the leather; missing official authentication certificate which is critical for autographed memorabilia.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay (with clear photos of every panel), Heritage Auctions (if a major World Series team), or Pristine Auction.
Selling Tips
Do not attempt to 'trace' over faded signatures. Submit the ball to PSA/DNA or JSA for a 'Letters of Authenticity' (LoA) to significantly increase the sale price. List with a full roster of identified names in the description.
