Hall of Famers, All-Stars, fan favorites, coaches, and a few of the NBA’s great characters are combined to make this hefty hoard of basketball autographs a great prize. Served up are (1,500+) single-signed government postcards and 3x5 index cards. Signature quality is generally pleasing, ranging (“7” to “10”) and the cards are crisp. The majority are signature only, however a fair number have inscriptions, and a minority are personalized. Many have identifications typed by the original collector.
Highlights come with auction LOA from James Spence/JSA, with: “Red” Auerbach, George Gervin, Clyde Lovellette, John Wooden, Slater Martin, Elgin Baylor, Nat Holman, Bob Cousy (2), Dave Cowens (3), Bennie Borgmann, Eddie Gottlieb (2), Phil Jackson, Bruce Hale, Harry Gallatin, H.E. “Bud” Foster, Joe Bryant (2), Walt Kennedy, “Digger” Phelps, Calvin Murphy (2), Sidney Moncrief, “Buddy” Jeanette, Hal Greer, Richie Guerin, Gail Goodrich, Stan Love, Rudy Tomjanovich, Nate Thurmond, Michael Cooper, Louie Dampier (2), Doug Collins, Darryl Dawkins (2), John Stockton, Ben Carnevale, Jerry Colangelo, Lou Carnesecca, Jack McCloskey, Ernie Calverly, George Yardley, Ralph Beard, “Tex” Winter, Bailey Howell, Walt Davis, Steve Kerr, Lloyd Free, Hubie Brown, Walt Bellamy, and Clair Bee.
