[QUOTE="Marote, post: 10459085, member: 84568"]Bought this signed baseball last weekend. As it's a 1978 model, with the Royal Netherlands Baseball and Softball Federation (KNBSB) stamp, I assume this was used/signed during a tournament held in Haarlem in 1978 ([URL]https://www.baseball-reference.com/bullpen/1978_Haarlemse_Honkbalweek[/URL]) Japan (1st place) and South Korea (2nd) participated in this tournament. I think the sigs are from the Japanese team. Correct? [ATTACH=full]526112[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]526116[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]526117[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]526113[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]526114[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]526115[/ATTACH] The seller also had 3 other balls, of which 2 were definitely signed (not sure about the other ball), but the sigs were too worn, and hardly legible, so I didn't buy those (also because I was out of cash... :D) One baseball also had Asian characters, so those would be the Korean sigs, if mine is from the Japanese team, or vice versa. And on the other ball I could only vaguely read one name. I remember reading 'Allan Alez', but I'm not sure, and couldn't find any info. But it seemed to be a Hispanic name, so I assume that ball had the sigs of the Cuban team.[/QUOTE]
