The New York/San Francisco Giants organization has produced dozens of Hall of Famers and has won a total of eight World Series titles, tied for third most in baseball. Five of those superstars who have donned the Giants uniform and earned Cooperstown enshrinement are represented within this lot of seven single-signed baseballs. HOF southpaw Carl Hubbell, who won 253 games during the course of his 16-year career with the NY Giants, signed three of the balls. He signed a pair of ONL (Feeney) balls and one Official Pacific Coast League ball (two in 7-8/10 blue ball ballpoint and one in 8/10 smeared blue marker). A trio of sluggers – Orlando Cepeda (8/10 blue marker), Willie McCovey (8-9/10 blue pen) and Willie Mays (9/10 black marker), with 379, 521 and 660 home runs, respectively – signed three of the other ONL (Feeney) balls. Mays even added the inscription “Best Wishes” above his signature. Tireless right-hander Gaylord Perry, who won 314 games and earned his Cooperstown nod in 1991, signed the remaining ONL (Feeney) ball in 9/10 black pen. This lot represents a great collection of Giants legends who all left indelible marks on our National Pastime.
