The Baseball could have been made anywhere from 1910-1970. - The value will depend on the year the baseball is from. The stamped signature of the League president will help you date the baseball. See Related Links below for a price guide for Major League baseballs without the box.

The American League, formally the American League of Professional Baseball Clubs combined with the National league in 1901 to form Major League Baseball. Alfred James Reach, owner of The Reach sporting Goods company, sold his company to Spalding in 1889. Spalding continued to use the Reach label to produced American League baseballs beginning in 1901.

NOTE: American League baseballs with the Reach Trademarkhad Red & Blue stitching, and the National League Spalding Trademark baseballs had Black & Red stitching up until about 1934/35 when in both league started using only red stitching.

Spalding along with the Reach label was producing Major league baseball for about 100 years until Rawlings took over around 1970, and Rawlings have been making major league baseballs ever since.
