A little about this ball … The Letter of Authenticity indicates the signature of Pie Traynor was “traced” by an unknown hand. The signature is legit, but traced and discovered under microscope during authentication. This ball is shellacked – as most ball from the era were for preservation purposes, and shellacking on one panel is irregular.
