It all depends on the price. If it was $500 I would take a stab..I have a feeling it will be much more. I would use it until I could afford a better replacement.

I think that is the same ball that was in the dining car on the train the day the Babe ate 20 hot dogs and had to be hospitalized with the "belly ache" heard round the World.....must have been accidently placed too close to the franks

I'd fill in that missing piece with that dog's hide. Not really though, dogs kick a$$.

I believe the person holding the ball in the dining car that day later went by the name Mordecai Three Finger Brown.

It could have been "Three Finger" Brown but from the looks of the ball , If it was he would have been nicknamed "Two Finger" Brown. My guess is that it was Pete Gray
