1979 Alan King Classic. Signed by John Mcenroe, Bjorn Borg (winner), Jimmy Connors (2nd) and Alan King. I'm selling it for someone else (along with a Dimaggio signed baseball). Just thought I'd share:
Lovely people and very wealthy. Their home was built in the 1920's and has servant's quarters. I was in awe the entire time we were going through the house.

Everything in the house is original right down to the bathroom fixtures. I love the 1920's look. It's all sleek. Not gaudy like the Victorian's did. The sinks, tubs and toilets are all heavy porcelain. Gorgeous! There are two kitchens. One is for breakfast and the other is for the servants to prepare meals. The tile work is wonderful! All 6 bedrooms have their own bathroom and three have a fireplace. It's situated on the grounds of a country club. My dream house!

I would say it is rare, but value??? I'm not sure. I would consider contacting a sports memorabilia auction house to get it evaluated before deciding to sell it. That and the DiMaggio ball. There is much more value in something that is placed for auction through a reputable auction house than on eBay.

Rare and highly collectible!
Agree with shag also the auction house can verify the signatures. If memory serves me correctly, Joe was not big on signing stuff.
The ball alone depending on condition is sure to be worth BIG bucks.
