1936 Inaugural Hall of Fame Autographed Ball
 
Does anyone know if any of these exist and are available?

They would be from 1939. I've seen a few, Google will no doubt take you to some from past auction results, etc.

programs, postcards, and baseballs "signed" but are they all real?

It's a good bet they're not all real.

Here's mine (pictured...)

Farley was the U.S. Postmaster, and Speaker is on sweetspot. Ball also has Collins, Mack, Baker, Simmons, Sisler, et al.

Here's another authentic one...

And another, but perhaps "not so much" (on the authenticity...)

Just because of a certain COA and misshapen lettering?? :D:D

Yeah... I thought that was probably reason enough to put in the disclaimer ;)

I have a ball autographed by Ruth, Johnson, Wagner, and Cobb (4 of the 5 original HOFers). The ball also has signatures of Mack, Collins, Sisler, and Speaker. It's a pretty amazing ball. I don't know if I'll ever sell it.

Pictures?
 
@ honus94566: can you send some pics, please?

Yes, they exist
 
One was offered through SCP last year (it was previously sold in 1997)...

That sounds like a Connie Mack 50th Anniversary Day ball from 1944. They were all there.

I have one with Ruth, Wagner, Johnson, Speaker, Sisler, Collins, Mack, Baker, Dickey and Grove! Cobb is on a separate ball. Still chasing Mathewson if anyone has!

Mathewson died 1i 1925. You're not going to find him on any HoF balls.

See posts directly above and below yours.

Not looking for a HOF ball with Matty, just him on any ball would be great!
