I would appreciate any and all help you could give on this matter. From the signatures on this ball i have gathered it is from the 1961 team by one signature Bob Hale (This is the only year he played for the Yankees). There are countless signatures i can make out: Luis Arroyo, Al Downing, Whitey Ford, Bill Stafford, Bob Hale, Tony Kubek, Bobby Richardson, Yogi Berra, Hector Lopez, Mickey Mantle, Roger Maris & Jack Reed there are many others whos signatures are harder to make out. It is a Yankees Teamball. Pictures below.

All signatures are hand signed none are stamps.

You're sure that it's not just a team stamped ball right? All the autos are hand signed?

Looking forward to seeing the pictures. ;-D

All the signatures are hand signed the ball has been sitting inside a plastic bag inside of a gun cabinet for the last 30 yrs.

That's a hand stamped ball. There's almost no question in my mind about that. The ink is too dark for a 50+ year old ball. If it IS genuine, hang on to it. It's a great piece of memorabilla. I'd be envious. It just doesn't look genuine from the pictures that you posted. I'd suggest that you retake these pictures using the focus feature. Either way, great piece!
