In terms of career records, the one that will probably never be broken, ever, is Cy Young’s unbelievable
mark of 511 wins. While some might argue that that record was achieved while playing in a different
era, one where pitchers worked much more frequently than today, it should be noted that his nearest
competition from the modern era is still over 150 wins behind him. He was, without question, the greatest
pitcher of his day and perhaps the greatest of all time. For that reason, Cy Young single signed balls remain
so highly coveted among collector’s today. Presented here is one of the hobby’s premier examples. This
D&M “Official League” baseball is inscribed across the sweet spot and side panel by Hall of Fame hurler.
Young has signed with a dark blue vintage ink “Saturday June 6, 1931 Cy Young”. The inscription and
signature rate 8-9 out of 10. The ball shows moderate even toning and general soiling but the large dark
blue signature endures as boldly as the day it was originally signed.
Includes a full LOA from PSA/DNA.
