DIZZY DEAN SINGLE SIGNED BASEBALL WITH ITS ORIGINAL BOX: A SPECTACULAR CONDITION GRADE EXAMPLE (PSA/DNA 8.5 NM-MT+)

Near white pristine unused W.Harridge American League baseball signed in aqua blue ink on side panel, "Best Wishes From Dizzy Dean". The signature and inscription both present as the day they were signed rating 9/10 out of 10. The ball is quite literally flawless boasting crisp manufacturer's stampings free of any mentionable defects. Included is the original Reach American League ball box which apparently preserved the offered signature baseball undiscovered from handling since its signing. Dizzy Dean was an outstanding pitcher for the St. Louis Cardinals during the Gashouse Gang period of the 1930s. Dean's colorful persona led to a successful post-career tenure as a beloved baseball announcer as well. Although occasional high grade Dean single signed baseballs have been offered at auction we are thoughtfully and resolutely confident in ranking this exemplar as the finest of that elite group. Simply stunning signature baseball. Includes full LOA from PSA/DNA (Ball: 8, Signature: 8, Overall: 8.5): Ball: MT, Signature: MT-GEM MINT
