I was trying to find Cleveland players, especially Don Mossi but not much luck. I was glad that he had the mid 90’s Indians team balls and I’m happy to give you a shoutout, Skaght! I appreciate the support always my friend 👊

Beautiful display of autos. My favorite was probably the Joe DiMaggio collection with his brothers and Marilyn. Thanks for showing these off!

The DiMaggio display was so good and the Marilyn signed ball was a fun surprise. It may be the collector’s favorite item because he got pretty excited talking about it on the video presentation. Thank you for watching and letting me know which one was your favorite, Sammy!

I’ve seen many autographed team balls with JSA/PSA certification letters (with 23 or more signatures) that have sold on eBay. But the baseballs sold for less than it cost to authenticate them with JSA. Makes no sense. The balls do show up on JSA authentication site and were certified in past few months. Am I missing something???
