Description
BID PER WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO, NOT THE AI GENERATED TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS! A Group of Four Baseball Memorabilia Items Including Brooks Robinson Comic and Multi-Signed Baseballs
This lot features a collection of four items of baseball memorabilia consisting of one comic book and three multi-signed baseballs. The comic book is Magnum Comics issue number 1 of The Greatest Name in Sports Comic Books series from May 1992, featuring Baltimore Orioles third baseman Brooks Robinson and a feature on Frank Thomas. The first multi-signed baseball is attributed to the 1951 Buffalo Bisons of the International League, bearing fountain pen signatures including Hank Biasetti, Archie Wilson, Frank Carswell, Walt Post, Jim Edwards, George Popovich, and Fred Hancock. The second multi-signed baseball includes signatures from players active in the early 1990s such as Eric Davis, Todd Benziger, Mitch Williams, and Juan Gonzalez. The third multi-signed baseball includes signatures from players active in the late 1990s to early 2000s, including Wilfredo Cordero, Mike Matheny, Aubrey Huff, and Scot Shields. No third-party certificates of authenticity or letters of authenticity are present for the signatures; items are sold as-is.
Condition report:
The comic book is contained within a protective plastic sleeve and appears to be in very good condition. The 1951 Buffalo Bisons baseball shows significant overall yellowing and toning due to age, though the signatures remain legible. The other two baseballs show light surface wear and minor toning with clearly visible signatures.
