An Important 1955 Negro Baseball All Stars Barnstorming Tour Signed Program (Including Mays, Aaron, Banks and Doby)Willie Mays said the 1955 Mays-Don Newcombe team of African American Major League players might have been "the best team ever assembled." Compiling a 28-0 record in their courageous barnstorming tour of the South and Southwest, this team included four hall of famers and many more top players from its era. Uncommon in any form, this program features exceptional vintage green ink signatures of every baseball legend pictured including: Willie Mays and Don Newcombe on the cover, and George Crowe, Ernie Banks, Sam Jones, Joe Black, Gene Baker, Jim Gilliam, Hank Aaron and Larry Doby in the inside spread. A remarkable piece of baseball and American history.
Property from the Collection of Mr. Allen Abel
