From the original owner:
My grandfather, Wilhelm Bill Rich, served in the army as a driver based in Fort Dix, New Jersey from 1943 to 1945 during the second world war. As part of World War II, he often drove high-ranking military officials to war bond drives in the New York City area such as exhibition baseball games with many MLB teams including the New York Yankees, New York Giants, and Brooklyn Dodgers, to raise money for the war effort.
This ball was signed in 1943, and sat on a shelf in my grandparents house ever since.
