Recently on eBay a couple of similar condition Mantle and Maris balls have sold -one for 1125 and another sold for a best offer with asking price of $2k. If I can get a very desirable ball for the low 1000s then I would happily sell this ball in my shop for 600-800 if I could find someone willing to take it. Balls like this scare me because they can sit on a shelf for years with no interest. In that time you have to hope those autographs don’t get worse.
