Sorry, more questions. Does it make any difference what ball is used? For example, the above auction uses a Spalding Official National League ball, and I've seen other different kinds of balls. Are there preferred ones that are better quality? Finally, I've noticed some balls are coated in shellac (sp?). I wouldn't purchase this kind of ball, but out of curiosity, why would people want to coat the ball like that back then? Thanks again.
