Fearsome slugger Mel Ott stands out among his Giants brethren on this vintage baseball as the Hall of Famer's large, bold, black fountain pen signature appears under the Spalding logo on the side panel. In all, there are 20 signatures which range from 2-8 in strength and include Joe Medwick, Ernie Lombardi and Carl Hubbell. The official Ford Frick baseball dates to 1943, when the Giants suffered one of their worst seasons ever at 55-98.
