A 1921 Ban Johnson Americal League ball. Obtained it on eBay about 10 years ago, and ended up selling it 5 years ago, for exactly what I paid for it. I contacted the buyer to make sure he was going to take care of it. That was the only consolation, that it was a father who was passing along his love of the game and its history to his son. But it's still not a happy memory.
