What is the value of a Spalding Official League ball autographed by Babe Ruth and Bob O'Farrell?
The value of a multi signed baseball cannot be priced by the value of each signature added up. Multi signed baseballs are valued as a group of signatures, and how desired that group is as a whole. This does not necessarily mean that two signatures will sell for less than one, but in most cases it does, or at least not the full value of the two signatures added up.

A 1934 New York Yankees Team Signed Baseball with the key signature: McCarthy, Ruth, Gehrig, Dickey, Combs, Lazzeri, Ruffing, Gomez, and Grimes is worth about $4,000.-$7,000. Value is based on average prices of recently closed auctions. Prices may vary based on condition, and the type of authenticity that accompanies the baseball. Prices may also vary based on the amount of signatures, and key signatures acquired. The more complete the baseball with key signatures the more valuable. The Spalding Babe Ruth Home Run Special baseball is a collectible, but once signed it looses it's value as a collectible baseball, and becomes an item to display the signatures. The bulk of the value will rely on the signatures, and how well the baseball displays them. The most desired baseball for these signatures would be an Official American League baseball from that era. If the signatures are not properly authenticated the baseball could sell at half the market value or less.

Where can you get a Babe Ruth autograph authenticated?
Baseballs featuring the genuine autograph of Babe Ruth are highly sought by collectors and potentially very valuable. Unfortunately, they are also very often forged. Presuming authenticity, values can range dramatically. Key factors are: the placement and clarity of Ruth's signature (the bigger and bolder, the better), the type of ball (is it an "Official American League" ball?), and the all-important overall condition of the ball and signature. The provenance; the who, what, when and where of a signed ball's history, may also add value if it's documented. If genuine, your ball would be worth $1500 to as much as $7500, depending on all the aforementioned factors. The toning and "yellowing" you describe would be a non-issue if the signature is authentic, but just FYI, an absolutely pristine signed Ruth ball could be worth $10,000-12,000, and perhaps more. With autographs, a picture is truly worth the proverbial thousand words, and can save alotta time in the authentication, appraisal, and selling process.
