Bo Jackson is the only athlete in history to become an all-star in two major professional sports. Presented is a Bo Jackson signed Beckett Baseball Card monthly magazine, Issue #63/June 1990/$2.50. Jackson, who played football, as a running back, and baseball, as an outfielder, for Auburn University, won the Heisman Trophy. In the NFL, he played for the Oakland Raiders (1982-90), rushing for a career 2,782 yards, a 5.4 yards per carry average, and 18 rushing touchdowns. He was an NFL Pro Bowl selection in 1990. In baseball, he was an outfielder for the Kansas City Royals (1986-90), Chicago White Sox (1991 & 1993), and California Angels (1984). His lifetime batting average was .250, with 141 home runs and 415 RBIs. He was an American League All-Star in 1989.
The offered signed magazine measures 8.1x10.75", and it has 96 pages, including covers. The black & white Beckett magazine cover shows Jackson in should pads, with no football jersey, and carrying a baseball bat that he holds behind his neck. This cover photo alludes to the then-famous "Bo Knows" commercials, made with musician Bo Diddley. Jackson's signature is bold and unique, with a flair that makes his autograph unusual. The Beckett Baseball Card magazine is in very good condition, with some corner wear, and wear at the top of the spine.
