Description: Baseball Hall of Fame Signed Extravaganza This is a very good plus first edition & printing hardback of The Baseball Hall of Fame 50th Anniversary signed by 26 with a LOA from JSA. This wasn't signed by all these legends at a show, these were obtained with time and an amazing experience by one dedicated MLB fan. The experience, part of it, can now be yours. Please see below to see a description of this book and his time. From the collector:I used to go to Cooperstown to the Induction ceremonies every summer from mid 1980's to the early 1990's or so. I paid $40 for this hardcover "The Baseball Hall of Fame 50th Anniversary Book" and carried it with me each year to the induction ceremonies and to baseball card shows in New England. I met EVERY one of these Hall of Famers in person and some of their family members that I also had sign the book. 26 autographs in all! 22 Hall of Famers and 4 family members of Hall of Famers. Out of the 26 signatures, 16 of them have passed away. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity! All autographs are 100 percent in person, in blue sharpie, no smudges, and all are clean! On the acknowledgements page I had any family member of a Hall of Famer that I met sign that page. I met 4 of them. It is signed by: #1 Jim Cobb (Ty Cobb's son) (deceased)#2 Henry Thomas (Walter Johnson's Grandson)#3 Roberto Clemente Jr. (Roberto's son)#4 Tony Gwynn Jr. (Tony's son) On the other pages I got 22 Hall of Famers.
