Description
BID PER WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO, NOT THE AI GENERATED TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS! An Assortment of Signed Sports Collectors Digest and Topps Memorabilia Featuring Goose Gossage and Dick Williams
A collection of baseball memorabilia celebrating the 2008 Hall of Fame inductions of Rich Goose Gossage and Dick Williams. The grouping features an autographed front cover page from the August 29, 2008, issue of Sports Collectors Digest magazine, titled Immortal. This page is hand-signed in blue ink by both Goose Gossage and Dick Williams, with each adding the inscription HOF 2008. Also included are two vintage Topps baseball cards: a 1979 Rich Gossage card number 380 depicting him with the New York Yankees and a 1984 Dick Williams card number 458 as manager of the San Diego Padres. The lot is accompanied by a Letter of Authenticity from Jack Berke Sports Inc. of New York, dated January 2009. This letter guarantees the authenticity of the Dick Williams signature, noting it was obtained during a private signing session on January 26, 2009. The baseball cards are housed in clear plastic sleeves.
Condition report:
The magazine page is printed on newsprint and exhibits minor handling wear and light edge creasing. The signatures remain bold and vibrant. The baseball cards are in good condition for their age and are protected by sleeves. The Letter of Authenticity shows standard horizontal creases from being folded.
