Joe E. Brown "402" Signed Baseball (JSA LOA)
Offered is this remarkable Joe E. Brown signed baseball. Signed and inscribed, this ball reads, To Ray - Joe E. Brown - .402." Remembered as a comedic actor, Brown also loved baseball and developed several routines, including one of a young pitcher harried by batters, umpires, and base runners. He used it on the stage, in the movies, and on television. When Brown signed a long-term contract with Warner Brothers he insisted on an unusual clause that required the company to maintain a complete baseball team for him among the employes of the studio. For a while, he played with the St. Paul team. He was part owner of the Kansas City Blues from 1932 to 1935, and in 1953 he was a pregame and postgame announcer for the Yankees. Perhaps the ".402" inscription relates to his team of actors? JSA LOA.
