I can't afford any mega-sports memorabilia, but I love looking at it all

I'll be curious to see what it ends at

Reserve not met, so you still have a shot next time.

I like how the "Similar" auctions at the bottom link to $5 '93 Upper Deck trading cards.

"Can't afford this $5 million ball? Well perhaps I can interest you in Pep Guardiola's World Cup trading card?"

What distinguishing marks does this ball have that every other 1986 WC ball does not have?

EDIT: I guess this is "proof."

It's all about the letter of provenance. When they use fancy words like that, it must be legit.

FIFA should buy it and put it in their museum.

Messi should buy it and make a toilet seat out of it.

I had that Adidas ball when I was younger. I remember it cost my dad something like $80, which was not cheap back then (not that it is now).

I used the heck out of it, and it was worn white. But it was still perfectly round and moved 'true'. Loved that thing.

Then it got stolen.

This gives me major Sandlot vibes.

That was a great ball. I had one as well.
