Commemorative baseball produced by Rawlings for the 1996 MLB All-Star Game in Philadelphia. The ball features patriotic red and blue stitching and the event logo stamped in red, making it a classic commemorative from baseball’s midsummer showcase. Tony Gwynn, who appeared in 15 All-Star Games over his career, was among the league’s brightest stars of the era, and keepsakes like this connect to that celebrated chapter in the game’s history.
