<div class="yqt4675740190" id="yqtfd28117">If you read the description of the Auction, you saw that when that Auction took place about 2 years ago, that football was the only one of its kind known to exist. Pretty cool, right?</div>

<div class="yqt4675740190" id="yqtfd28117">I have been in contact with a guy who works at Steiner Sports, and he has forwarded pics of my ball to an expert who works at JSA which is one of the big memorabilia authenticators. And the consensus is that my football is genuine! </div>

<div class="yqt4675740190" id="yqtfd28117">Now it is not in as good condition as the other one, but I'm hoping it still may be VERY valuable. So I am bringing it in to Steiner next Friday afternoon (they are located in Westchester) to have it looked at in person.</div>
