This National League baseball, signed by the legendary Willie McCovey, is a true gem for any baseball fan. The ball is an original and comes directly from the family of the owner, making it a special item with a unique story.The beautiful autograph of the Hall of Famer is clearly visible on the ball, making it a great addition to any collection or display. While there is no Certificate of Authenticity included, the provenance of the item is clear and makes it a valuable and cherished piece of sports memorabilia. The item is being sold as is and has been in my family for a long time without a COA, without authentication.
