BID PER WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO, NOT THE AI GENERATED TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS! Max Manning Single-Signed Negro Leagues Baseball, JSA Authenticated
This lot features an Official National League baseball (William D. White, President) signed by legendary Negro League pitcher Max Manning. Manning was a star right-hander for the Newark Eagles of the Negro National League, where he played a pivotal role in the team’s 1946 World Series championship alongside Hall of Famers Larry Doby and Monte Irvin. The baseball features a bold, single signature from Manning across the sweet spot rendered in purple ink. This specific Rawlings model dates to the presidency of William D. White (1989–1994), representing a well-preserved piece of baseball history from one of the Negro Leagues’ most respected hurlers. The item is accompanied by a James Spence Authentication (JSA) Basic Certification card and a matching serial-numbered hologram (CH61132) affixed to the ball for permanent identification.
Condition report:
The baseball is in excellent condition, featuring a clean, white leather surface and vibrant red stitching. The signature is bold, clear, and well-preserved with no evidence of fading or ink transfer.
