Incredible collection of St. Louis Cardinals team signed baseballs ranging from 1949 to 1959. Almost every signature is easily readable with the unidentified ones due to penmanship more than quality. Almost every signature rates about 7/10 of better. Also included in this outstanding collection of team signed balls are the autographs of Cardinal owner August Busch and the legendary Harry Caray, the long time Cardinal announcer. Only one of the balls is in bad physical condition. A must for the true St. Louis Cardinal fan!
