Few of them turn out looking even better than intended, but yours sure did! That's why if you're ever going to get a baseball autographed, make sure it's a Rawling Official Major League Baseball (or ROMLB). For whatever reason they're the only ones who produce baseballs the right way anymore so that the ink won't fade.<br /><br />Great find, congrats!View From the Skyboxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15048560557580703188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4335025527445255390.post-63995546312192041812013-12-21T18:01:21.531-05:002013-12-21T18:01:21.531-05:00Interesting, and thanks for the info.

So what used to be black faded to gold over time...it's pretty common for these autos to fade, cool as they do indeed look.<br /><br />That said, fantastic price, and still a good looking auto! So...nice!SpastikMoosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13374559066158419166noreply@blogger.com
