A friend sent me these pictures. He found the ball while cleaning an attic. It doesn't look like a stamped ball. I hope the images are good enough.

[B]Is it a real MLB ball? What signatures are identifiable, are they real? What approximate year is it from. Value, if any. All opinions are welcome. Thanks[/B]

Second photo looks like it has Catfish Hunter and Willie Randolph on it. I'm on iPhone so real hard to see. There will be folks who can tell you most of these.

Looks like Yogi Berra at the top of the third one.

Very bottom of pic 1 looks like Thurman Munson , same signature at top of pic 2, but not clear at all.

Oscar Gamble, Lou Pinella, Willie Randolph, Mick Rivers etc. It's a Yankee ball from mid to late 70's .....the big question is if the Munson is real, it is the value factor for the whole ball.   

There are likely some clubhouse autographs on the ball. Berra definitely looks to be clubhouse. Clubhouse means that a proxy signer in the clubhouse autographed for the person who was likely not present when the ball was signed.

As Pete said, the Munson is the key autograph on the ball. I think it also may be clubhouse but if you can post a  close up of the Munson it will be easier to tell for sure if it is authentic.

Thanks for all opinions. I will try to get a sharper picture of the Munson and others. When I do, it will be posted in the Baseball Autograph Memorabilia section. Posted in this section was in error. Thanks
