Ed Walsh holds the distinction of having the lowest career ERA among all qualifying pitchers with a lifetime Earned Run Average of only 1.82, likely a record that will never be broken. Big Ed was one of only two pitchers in the modern era to win 40 or more games in a single season. This Official A.L. (Bernard) was signed boldly on a side panel "Ed A. Walsh". JSA notes "Surface abrasions suggest signature removals in order to display as a single-signed baseball." The ball does indeed display nicely as a single signed ball, with the signature rating a strong 6-7/10. A great chance to add a rare signature on a baseball to your collection. Comes with full LOAs from JSA AND PSA .Multiple images and scan of LOA available at goldinauctions.com.
