I actually looked to see if Vander Meer pitched in this game (game 4) and he did not. The condition is definitely rugged, but I suspect not many of these survived at all. The fact that it signed by this many players seems pretty remarkable to me.
I have posted these items before, but here are a few of the items that I own related to Vander Meer and this series that was dominated by Vander Meer and Virgil Truck's Navy team:

Thank you both for the comments. It's really one of my favorite pieces due to the history. I just wish it was in better shape but it's still one of a kind.
Great stuff, Scott. I'm a sucker for military items such as what you have there. Baseball and Americana all mixed into one. Can't beat that!
