The creme de la creme of all autographed baseballs would be a clearly signed ball by the two greatest Yankee legends of all. We are proud to offer this treasure, a nicely aged ball signed by Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig. The stamped-on markings and the signatures have faded on the Wilson Official League ball and the overall wear on it is a sure sign of a horsehide with a ton of history. The signatures of two immortals give the ball an extra glow. Ruth signed in dark blue ink on the sweet spot and is the darker of the two signatures, boasting distinctive flourishes on the "B" and R" and rating an overall 6. Gehrig's signature is just to the right in black ink, faded to grey but is still eminently readable, with large circles on the "L" and "G." It also rates 6.
