Condition report:
The items are in good collectible condition. Balls retained in original packaging or the acrylic case show minimal surface wear, while loose balls exhibit light toning and minor surface dust consistent with age. The original green Rawlings cardboard boxes show minor edge wear, scuffing, and some handwritten notations on the flaps. Signature boldness varies throughout the collection, with some ink showing light fading.
