The Ball 135 is supposed to be signed by Tyler. The Ball 317 and 327 are supposed to be signed by Apperson. The Ball 99 is nicely framed. The Ball 324 is huge, and is perfect for framing. It is folded. All others are encased in rigid 14' x 17" Mylar protective sleeves, and will be shipped in those sleeves. You can frame the bonds in these sleeves. For some, framing with glass on front and back is a great idea, as some interesting historical stuff is on reverse of several of these. Shipping charges will be added. Pics available, just ask.
