Does anybody have a clue as to what ball this may be?

Dug this one up buried in some remote storage area here. No tags, no labels, and no clue. Having a tough time seeing any signatures that stick out in my head. Any help is appreciated!

1941 Detroit Tigers team ball . . .
 
.
probably should have been posted in the Autographed Sub-forum section.

The combination of the following signatures on this ball leads me to guess it
is from the 1941 Detroit Tigers team:

Al Benton
Fred Hutchinson
Hal Newhouser
Del Baker
Pat Mullin
Hoot Evers
Dick Wakefield

Signatures are alittle on the light side, and one or two panels are quite
rough. I would guess general value, given condition, would fall between
$75-$150. My experience has been that signed Detroit Tigers baseballs
from 1941 are not rare, and do occassionally pop up every once in a great
while. But this is still a great item for the vintage Tigers fan.
Thanks for sharing.

THANK YOU! Had a feeling it was a forties era Tiger ball. Your information is greatly appreciated. This ball will be going up for sale if anybody is interested! Sorry if I posted in the wrong forum. Relatively new to this forum/group.
