1950s?? Philadelphia Phillies team signed ball

[Banjo]

I have a Phillies team signed ball from the late 1950s (I believe). I am selling this for a friend who is terminally ill. I need some guidance on best place to sell this item. Pricing? Should I authenticate? I think it is from 1957, but am not sure.

It's not a desperate situation, but he definitely wants to sell. I really want a fair price for both parties. Any advice would be welcomed.

They’re probably too big. I think the limit is 2MB per.

Thanks ... I was able to load images of the 2 other balls. The Tapatalk app just times out when i try to load. I'm still on the free version of the app, and might have hit a limit or something.

Does anyone have an idea of what year this might be from?

1958..... it was Bobby Young's only year on the Phillies. Is Ashburn on the ball?

Thanks for the input ... I can't seem to find Ashburn. I'm no expert... do you see him?

Not in any of the pics....however you do have the batting practice pitcher, Spud Murray.

I actually figured that after a little of my own research. I kind of laughed too

Definitely 1958. Wally Post and Jim Hegan arrived that year, and Bob Young was gone by 1959. Willie Jones is the toughest signature that jumps out at me.

Thank you sir. I'm guessing authenticating this ball won't be worth it
