A Rawlings Official Major League Baseball (Selig) signed and inscribed by Baseball Hall of Fame pitcher Juan Marichal. The ball has been signed by Marichal on the sweet spot along with the inscription "H.O.F. 83." Marichal has then added another 12 inscriptions to the baseball in his own handwriting, listing many statistics and accomplishments from his career. Inscriptions inlude "Domincan Dandy/ 243 Wins/ 471 Games/ 244 Complete Games/ 52 Shutouts/ 3,507 Innings/ 2,303 Strikeouts/ 2.98 Career ERA/ 6 - 20 Win Seasons/ 1965 All Star Game MVP/ 9 All Star Games/ No Hitter 6/15/63." Signature and inscriptions all in blue ink. Affixed to the baseball is a sticker from ReggieJackson.com numbering the ball "211/1000." While there are 1,000 balls listed in the edition number, it has been speculated that far less than 1,000 baseballs were ever signed and inscribed. Accompanied by the original box and felt pouch for the baseball, and a certificate of authenticity from ReggieJackson.com. ESTIMATE $25-50 Categories:
