(LOT 2)
Miraculous c.1920 Joe Jackson & Buck Weaver Signed Official Ban Johnson A.L. Baseball – PSA/DNA & JSA/James Spence LOAs

No baseball player signature is arguably more exalted than the ultra-rare script of "Shoeless" Joe Jackson with only a handful of the iconic Jackson autograph surfacing in the hobby every several years. The near-absence of any "Shoeless" Joe signatures is due to his well-documented illiteracy that made it excruciatingly difficult for him to sign his name. For that reason alone, Jackson signatures are near impossible to find, with the few known specimens depicting horrific penmanship/shakiness on legal related documents, vouchers/checks or album pages/cuts. Indeed, finding a baseball portraying the exalted Joe Jackson autograph is an extremely daunting task with only a handful of Jackson scripted baseballs surfacing in the hobby.
