Baseball circa 1952-1960 signed by Sonny Weissman and John Schommer, coach and Director of Athletics at Armour Institute of Technology. The baseball belonged to Eugene Kreml, a 1937 graduate of Armour Institute. Apparently signed for Kreml years later as an alumnus. Baseball could not have been signed by Schommer any later than 1960 as he died in January of that year.
