Magazine photo flawlessly inscribed "Best Wishes/Owen Hart/King of Harts" in blue Sharpie atop his image. PSA has encapsulated the photo and graded the signature GEM MINT 10. Owen Hart's signature is scarce due to his untimely death at the age of thirty-four in 1999 after falling from the rafters before the start of a match at the WWF's "Over the Edge" pay-per-view event at Kemper Arena in Kansas City, Missouri. The Hart Family is considered wrestling royalty and Owen was the youngest of twelve siblings, many of whom made professional wrestling their career. The fact that Hart inscribed this photo "King of Harts" indicates it was signed after 1994, which was the year he won the "King of the Ring" tournament and adopted that self-proclaimed title. "King of Harts" was also a slight at his more famous brother Bret, with whom he engaged in a long ring feud after the two had a falling out. Considered one of the top performers in pro wrestling history, Owen Hart was inducted into the Legends Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame in 2011. The photo (8x10.5" complete) has been neatly removed from the magazine and is in Near Mint condition.
