Lot # 2026: 1940s New York Giants Pitchers Single-Signed Baseball Collection (25)

Collection of 25 single-signed baseballs consisting exclusively of former New York Giants pitchers from the 1940s. This collection is highlighted by many tough-to-find signees. Unless otherwise noted, all the signatures appear on the sweet spot of an official Major or National League baseball dating from the 1980s or later (except for two American League balls and nine non-official balls). The signatures have been scripted in a variety of inks. Three of the offered baseballs have full JSA LOAs while 16 others have basic individual authentication from JSA, PSA/DNA, or Beckett.
