I helped promote shows in the 1980's and 1990's in the Midwest. Below are some of the prices we charged for baseballs and flats. We paid Mantle & Ford $12500.00 for four hours. DiMaggio got $25000.00 for four hours and we also had to pay first class airfair , limo from the airport, and a suite at the hotel in Springfield,Il. Most of the other Hall of Famers would sign for four hours for fees from $1000.00 - $2500.00 and they would get to the show on their own.
Mickey Mantle & Whitey Ford (one of each) $20.00 Joe DiMaggio $25.00 Ozzie Smith $10.00 Warren Spahn $10.00 Bob Feller $10.00 Lou Brock $10.00 Bob Gibson $10.00 Eddie Mathews $10.00 Al Kaline $10.00 Stan Musial $10.00 I also went to other shows and paid $20.00 each for Ted Williams and Mantle, Sandy Koufax $20.00, Bill Dickey $20.00. Carl Hubbell used to sign for us in the mail for $10.00 for baseballs.Purchased 5 dozen baseballs signed by Ted Williams for $250.00 a dozen when the show was hit by a snow storm and attendance was small. |
