Johnny Mize Grand Slam ball
Picked up this Johnny Mize Grand Slam baseball. The seller had deciphered some of the light printing on the ball, but I managed to get it all. The ball is a Ford Frick NL Spalding baseball. By checking the stamping against examples in Brandon Grunbaum's Baseball guide I was able to determine this type ball was only used in 1947-48 which checks out with the info on the ball.
