The timeless classic of baseball autograph collecting -- signed on the sweet spot by a Hall of Famer ! Super quick turnaround -- check the feedback! Here is your chance to own a pristine autograph of all-time great Cubs outfielder Billy Williams, inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1987. Mint blue pen signature on sweet spot of OML (Selig). Ball is clean and white. All-around superb specimen. Includes brand-new PSA/DNA-exclusive Ultra Pro UV-protected plastic cube with special slot for COA! Billy was the 1961 National League Rookie of the Year. He was also a 6-time All-Star and the 1972 National League batting champion. The PSA Sports Market Report (view on the PSA web site) as of June 2, 2015 values a single-signed Williams baseball at $35 based on recent sales -- n ot including the cost of a COA! Authentication : Acquired in person at a Baseball Assistance Team banquet in New York in the mid-2000s. Now with PSA/DNA Certificate of Authenticity #Z13270 -- see pic of sticker on reverse of item which can be verified on the PSA website. To avoid all doubt, I had this item authenticated by PSA/DNA in May 2015 at a cost of $10--50% off their retail pricing. While this results in a higher minimum bid requirement, hopefully it will save the buyer enough time, trouble, and dollars to make it worthwhile! Please also see my guarantee below (and pic) and PLEASE check my feedback ! Thank You! ) Shipping : For buyers in the USA and Canada, the item will be shipped to you via USPS First Class mail with Delivery Confirmation. For all other international buyers, shipping will be through the Global Shipping Program. ABOUT MY AUTOGRAPHS I am gradually liquidating my extensive collection of sports autographs and memorabilia (primarily baseball) mostly acquired from 1994-2014. If not in-person, my collecting has been done via private signings, auctions, and occasional retail purchases. If you want to know specifically where/when the listed autograph was obtained (if not already stated) please let me know and I will do my best to recollect. Of course feel free to ask me any questions about any of my items. I enjoy selling through eBay and hopefully saving you the buyer the 20+% in the Buyer's Premiums that auction houses typically charge. Of course the biggest question anyone should have as a buyer is - WHAT ABOUT THE AUTHENTICITY?? Although eBay seems to have made some strides in protecting collectors from fakes and forgeries, this hobby is still overrun with questionable items. Here is what I can do to back my listings and give you the same sense of security and confidence I seek as a buyer: My autographs fall into two categories: 1) Those that came with a COA /LOA when acquired (usually at auction or private signing). When that is the case, I have uploaded any applicable images. Many are from nationally recognized authentication houses. 2) Those that I acquired in-person and don't have a previously existing COA/LOA. I have pondered what to do about this as obviously if these items are acquired by me and the only LOA is from me then what does that really mean? So here is my offer...best that I can think of... to assure you my items are genuine: If, after winning, you get a "fail" authenticity opinion from any of eBay's 3 recognized authentication firms (see /help/buy/authentication.html#authentication) I will refund your purchase, refund the cost of authentication, pay for shipping to return it to me, and add $20 for your trouble. After the item is delivered to you (along with my guarantee letter outlining these terms--see pic), this offer will be in effect for the original buyer only for the next year. (Note: I do keep photos of everything I sell.) IMPORTANT: I will also apply the terms of #2 above to #1 above to assure you any pre-existing COA/LOA is genuine and correct as well. As an example, if an item comes with a JSA COA and you later get a PSA "fail", I will refund your money and apply the terms of this guarantee! If there is a... read more
