These great Basketball HOF Enshrinement Dinner programs from 1984 to 1987 are beehives of valuable autographs from roundball legends -- including "Pistol" Pete Maravich signed on the very day he was enshrined on May 5, 1987. Obtained by a local Springfield resident who attended all the induction ceremonies, the unique signature over Pete's bio reads "Pistol Pete, John 14:6," signifying his religious convictions. Sadly, Pete died on January 5, 1988. Other signatures in this program include fellow inductees Walt Frazier and Rick Barry, and in the others there are inductees and guests including Tom Heinsohn, John Havlicek, Larry O'Brien, Larry Bird, Nate Thurmond, Red Auerbach, Bob Cousy, Sam Jones, many more! Signatures mostly NRMT, as are the programs. Obtained directly from the gentleman who got these sigs in person and who pointed out the very day it was signed.
