Beautifully Wonky Early 20th C. Baseball

Regular price $45.00

I love old balls of many sorts, and find baseballs especially beautiful--formally, and for the history of America's pastime they invoke. And most of all I love a wonky one--this one even wonkier in person than photos convey. C. 1910s-20s  I believe, with red and black stitches, and quite misshapen, as if having lived out in far left field through rain and snow for years before finally being found again. And so, to me, an empathetic object as well as a viscerally satisfying one. 

Approx 3 1/4" x 2 3/4". Sound and sturdy.
