One year removed from a World Series appearance, the Brooklyn Dodgers found themselves trailing the Boston Braves of Spahn and Sain. Somewhere along the way they signed this Official National League Ford Frick baseball, with 23 blue and black ink signatures. Leo Durocher’s clubhouse signature is on the sweet spot with other signatures including Hall of Famers Jackie Robinson, Pee Wee Reese, Roy Campanella, Arky Vaughan and Branch Rickey. Other signatures include, Gene Hermanski, Pete Reiser, John Hall, Joe Hatten, Bruce Edwards, Rex Barney, Don Lund, Johnny Van Cuyk, Hank Berham and two others. This baseball comes with a LOA from PSA/DNA (V13898). Please note that the signatures of Gil Hodges, Duke Snider, Ralph Branca, Jack Banta, Carl Furillo and Tommy Brown, along with Durocher have been deemed clubhouse versions by PSA/DNA, a common practice in that era.
