Original color snapshot photo of Larry Bird on the court during his 1979 rookie season with the Boston Celtics, signed by Bird in blue Sharpie (grading 10/10) on the front. PSA has encapsulated the piece, certifying the photo as Type I Authentic and the signature as Authentic. Taken from a courtside perspective, the photo captures Bird vying for a jump ball against a member of the New York Knicks at the Boston Garden. The date "December 1979" is stamped on the reverse. The Celtics hosted the New York Knicks on November 30, 1979, which is most likely when this photo was taken. The photo (5x3.5") remains in Near Mint condition. An exceptional signed original photo of Bird during his inaugural NBA season.
