A Rawlings Official American League Baseball (Budig) signed and inscribed by Baseball Hall of Fame Inductee Brooks Robinson. The ball has been signed by Robinson on the sweet spot along with the inscription "HOF 81." Jenkins has then added another 14 inscriptions to the baseball in his own handwriting, listing many statistics and accomplishments from his career. Inscriptions inlude "1964 AL MVP/ 1966 All Star Game MVP/ 1970 World Series MVP/ 16 Gold Gloves/ 18 All Star Game Appearances/ 2,896 Games/ .267 Career Avg./ 10,654 at Bats/ 2,848 Hits/ 482 Doubles/ 68 Triples/ 268 Home Runs/ 1,232 Runs/ 1,357 RBI." Signature and inscriptions all in blue ink. Affixed to the baseball is a sticker from ReggieJackson.com numbering the ball "211/1000." While there are 1,000 balls listed in the edition number, it has been speculated that far less than 1,000 baseballs were ever signed and inscribed. Accompanied by the original box and felt pouch for the baseball, and a certificate of authenticity from ReggieJackson.com. Categories:
