Exceptional Brooklyn Dodgers team-signed ball dating to the club's only World Championship season in Brooklyn. The souvenir "Dodgers" ball has been beautifully signed in blue ink by the following 21 members of the 1955 World Championship team: Alston (Mgr., sweet spot), Robinson, Reese, Koufax, Furillo, Hodges, Shuba, Borkowski, Spooner, Loes, Kellert, Hoak, Howell, Newcombe, Gilliam, Podres, Walker, Erskine, Roebuck, Amoros, and Labine. The signature of Duke Snider has been deemed a clubhouse example by JSA. The blue-ink notation "1955 World Series Champs" is printed on the ball label. Signatures range from "7" to "9," averaging "8." The ball is in Excellent to Mint condition overall, bordering on Near Mint. This is one of the finest-condition 1955 Brooklyn Dodgers team-signed balls we have ever offered. Full LOA from James Spence/JSA. Reserve $500. Estimate $1,000++.
