Being from a "Sovereign state" where ice fishing has top billing, I would think you would be a little more forgiving...

The page says its some where between 60 and 70 percent of the size of a modern ball and not nearly as hard. It also says it is from the late 1800s but that is all it says.
I edited my original post to have the only other pictures. I looked into moving the thread, but I don't think I can actually move it. I should have posted it over that, Leon. Can you move it for me? Thanks Kevin Last edited by thehoodedcoder; 03-23-2014 at 07:39 PM. |

It definitely looks real. On the high end 600 to 800. Looks to be in nice shape and typical size for 1870s. if u can get for reasonable price its a great relic balls were typically smaller then and were softer than normal baseballs.

I wouldn't touch it - it could be that 'real' baseballs looked like this, but I've seen plenty of realistic fakes that also looked like this. Basically, if you are going to create a fake, you'll use the simplest design possible, and for a 19th century baseball, you are looking at it.

well that sounds like decent advice but I am hoping for something more concrete than that.
is there anything that makes someone feel like it is fake, based on experience and something in the images? is there any way to get it authenticated or confirmed it is genuine? if so what would be the best service to do that? kevin Last edited by thehoodedcoder; 03-23-2014 at 09:43 PM. |
