Lot #448:

1962 New York Yankees Multi-Signed Babe Ruth League Baseball w/ (2) Mickey Mantle Roger Maris - JSA

Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris are intertwined in baseball's history as the homer happy duo vied for Babe Ruth's home run record in 1961.

From a year after their historic chase is this Babe Ruth League Baseball signed by both sluggers along with a few more Yankees. It appears as though Mantle signed the sweet spot twice, although the lower autograph is nearly lost in time. Maris signed the east panel in black ballpoint. The signature rates about "4-5" in strength and can be viewed with Mantle from one angle. Others who signed include: Jerry Lumpe, Dick Williams, Hank Bauer and a few more. The ball has scuff marks on its exterior.
