Official American League baseball having moderate general wear/soiling signed a side panel by Waner in black fountain pen. Signature presents very well rating 7/8 out of 10. The ball appears to have been used in game play with some scattered abrasions and two impact marks on one panel. "Big Poison" was the older of the Waner brothers both of whom would end up in the Hall of Fame for their outstanding play with the Pittsburgh Pirates during the 1920-40s era. Paul Waner was one of the most dominant players of the period ending his career with a .333 batting average, 3152 base hits, and 1927 MVP Award recipient. His election to the Hall of Fame in 1952 and passing due to pneumonia in 1967 is reflective of the great demand for his single signature baseball exemplars. One of the toughest of any 3,000 Hit Club member to acquire. Includes full LOA from JSA: Ball: VG/EX-EX, Signature: NM
