TBob1) A personally inscribed baseball to my daughter which says "Best wishes Ashley, Joe Dimaggio." The picture of Joe D. handing her the ball (she was about 9 years old at the time) was on the front page of the Kansas City Star.
Ashley has the ball now and the picture so I guess I will have to go with this one:
2)A "folk art ball" in which the owner some where between 1914 and 1940 carefully pasted M116s and T207s around a baseball and then neatly pasted a cut signature of Christy Mathewson. One of a kind and unfriggingbelievable. It is beautiful piece of memorabilia. You may remember this in a Robert Edwards auction about 7 or 8 years ago. He (original owner) also did the same thing with signatures of Johnny Evers and 2 or 3 other HOFers. The balls brought a lot of bidding attention but 8 years later, they would go through the roof.
