Just five years removed from an abysmal run of four straight last-place seasons, the 1960 Pittsburgh Pirates not only righted the ship, but overcame the vaunted New York Yankees to win its first World Series since 1925. This ONL Giles ball is autographed by (23) members of that swashbuckling roster. The creamy orb (grade “7-8”) has ballpoint signatures, most of which show (“8”) quality, with keys including: (2) Clemente (both “6-7”), Face, Groat, Haddix, H. Smith and Virdon. Full photo LOA from JSA. Complete listing on our website.
