Beatles Ball Goes On The Block

The last of four baseballs signed by the Fab Four in 1966 goes up for sale at the upcoming Christies Rock-n-Roll Auction. It is expected to fetch between $15,000 and $20,000.

The equipment manager of the Washington DC Senators took his four children to the stadium before the concert, on August 15th, 1966 and each child had a baseball autographed by all four Beatles. Two of the baseballs have been sold, one was lost, and this ball, is the last of the four.
