OFFICIAL MLB SAMPLE PRINTS, PROTOTYPES, MISPRINTS, & ODDBALLS

Please note: There could be are sample prints, AKA prototypes, for nearly every single MLB baseball ever made. They’re impossible to track at this point; they’re endless! But that’s half the fun of collecting these oddballs. We’ll try to add them as we see them, but please don’t take this list as final, it will never be final. We don’t want to track and buy every single lame Manfred-era commemorative wordmark logo ball with a barely distinguishable logo size change that trickles out onto eBay. This OGB list is for the cool stuff: Different logo designs, varying ink colors, different lace colors & combos, etc. Truly unique stuff! Check out the Museum of Baseballs “misfits” gallery here!

    1. It’s now mostly up to date through 2024. We might be missing a few from recent years, so please chime in if you see something that looks off. And we’re still tracking down promo/non-used baseballs for many years, and deciding how to assign certain baseballs like international exhibitions and promotional/first pitch types.
