It's staged so expect Ruth.

The holy grail should be an innaugural HOF ball but I doubt any exist (Ive never seen one)

For all who don't want to know if the sig is legit or not, don't scroll down.

















The commercial blurrs out the auto but they show Seth holding the psa DNA letter while the voice over asks "is it real?"

Considering some of the things I've seen on that show tat are supposedly "great" - I'd expect something for less valuable that what most of us would consider a "Holy Grail".

This is Hardcore Detroit City Pawn, not Bayou Pawn!

So it's a Ruth ball, hardly the holy grail.
Player wise, yes. Value and scarcity wise, no.

Interesting that they mention psa and jsa as the top two in the biz.

Mathewson makes that impossible.
Technically not, even though Mathewson died in 1925, more than a decade before the first HOF election.
Barry Halper had a ball signed by Mathewson, Johnson, Ruth, Cobb and Wagner.
The old man who Halper bought the ball from many years ago, said he originally got it signed by Mathewson in the early 20s.
Then he got the other four to sign the ball during the first HOF ceremony.

You would have known literally the second it went on, was the very first segment on both the teaser and actual show.

Is that true? That has to be the number one signed ball out there.

As a former owner of a Mathewson autograph, I'm aware that signatures exist...I was simply responding to the (my opinion) implication of all of the '36 Class signing at the Inauguration.

;) I was just kidding. There's way too many new shows on tonight to bother myself with Pawn shows.

This would be insanely epic to own.

My Grandpa used to own a ball signed by Ruth, Gehrig and Hank Aaron.....he got the ball from his brother in-law, Don McShane, a former Orioles scout. Unfortunately, despite my insistence on the historical value of the ball, my Grandpa sold it. He wouldn't tell me the price, just that he got enough to buy a truck.
