Texas Rangers 1972 Team Signed Baseball Nellie Fox, Ted Williams, 29 sigs, PSA

Description: This is the ultimate of all collectables for the Texas Rangers MLB die hard fan or in fact any serious sports fan, collector, or investor. This is an original certified hand signed American League Ball, Joseph Cronin, President baseball signed by 29 of the team players for the Inaugural 1972 Texas Rangers team. Just a little history for those that may not know it. The Washington Senators moved to Texas and became the Texas Rangers in1972. The head coach was the great Hall Of Famer Ted Williams and his signature is on the sweet spot of the baseball and the other very important autograph is the hall of famer Nellie Fox. The third very important autograph is the great Frank Howard. I can't really figure out why he isn't in the Hall Of Fame, He was NL Rookie of the year (1960), 4 X All-Star (1968-1971), World Series champion (1963), 2x AL Home run leader (1968, 1970), AL RBI leader (1970), Washington Nationals Ring Of Honor, Home Runs (382), One thing that is very important to know is that a Nellie Fox autograph baseball is more valuable than a Ted Williams autograph since Nellie signed a lot less than Ted Williams due to the fact Mr. Fox died on December 1, 1975 at a very young age of only 47 years old. His autographs are very hard to find and beware there are a lot of Nellie Fox fake autographs.To top it all off there are a total of 29 Texas Rangers signatures on the ball. Here is a list of the 29 autographs, Nellie Fox, Ted Williams, Frank Howard, Larry Biittner, Dick Billings, Dick Bosman, Pete Broberg, Joe Comacho, Casey Fox, Bill Fahey, Bill Gogolewski, Rich Hand, Vic Harris, Sid Hudson, Dalton Jones, Hal King, Ted Kubiak, Paul Lindblad, Joe Lovitto, Dave Nelson, Dick Nen, Jim Panther, Mike Paul, Horacio Pina, Lenny Randle, Jim Shellenback, Don Stanhouse, Ken Suarez, and Wayne Terwilliger. If you go to the PSA/DNA website you will see that there are 28 autographs listed.This baseball is historical and probably should be in the Texas Rangers museum. This is super rare item Texas Rangers 1972 signed baseball. Back in the 1970's is was very rare to get a signed team baseball. They just didn't do it back then. This ball has been certified by the great Stephen Koshal. Mr Koshal certified this on July 14, 1997 and the COA will be included with the ball. He is an certified Licensed Appriaser and his company was established in 1967. He holds numerous positions in the autograph world such as Former Director of the U.A.C.C. He was voted the "1994 Philographer of the Year." He was also listed and published in Ripley's Believe It Or Not. Also the autographs have been authenticated by PSA/DNA. PSA has certified that all of the autographs are genuine except for the Ted Williams. Keep in mind that this is an opinion from PSA. I am really quite surprised that it didn't pass from PSA due to the fact it looks just like any other Ted Williams signature. Mr. Stephen Koshal states in his COA certificate was a rushed "Ted Williams" signature probably signed while he was walking. I will hang my hat with Mr. Stephen Koshal that it is authentic. This is a true one of a kind collectable and you will probably never see another 1972 team signed ball ever again. Once it's gone it's gone.NBOX#60
