Bob Pettit signed original photograph was used for his 1957 Topps Rookie Card. This black and white 8x10" image depicts a shooting Pettit, ball perched in his right hand as he prepares to fire. Beautifully signed in black fine point marker across his St. Louis Hawks uniform shorts. Back is blank except for "Bob Pettit" stamp; a color version of this image was used in the aforementioned Topps card, with the other difference relating to the dark background of this photo as the card was infilled with a yellow and red background. Encapsulated by PSA and dual-graded as Type II Authentic, and a signature grade of AUTO 9. Pettit was one of the NBA's great early stars, averaging over 20 points per game in each of his 11 seasons.
