Hi-
I want to thank everyone again for sharing your incredible early baseballs! I still have questions I will post about some of them but they are all amazing to look at.
My antiquing hot streak continued a few weeks after this post as I found yet another lemon peel ball at an outdoor antique show in NH. It came from an Americana collection that was put together in PA more than 30 years ago. The dealer who bought the collection had two lemon peel balls. One was small and very similar to the one I bought from a board member in the spring. The other was large (very close to a modern baseball). I bought the large one but I had to pay a steep price (800 range). I am very happy to have a large lemon peel and am amazed that I found two within weeks of each other.
