Measuring 21" x 30", this framed Reggie Jackson piece features three black-and-white photos of the lefty slugger hitting for the Oakland A's, New York Yankees, and California Angels, respectively. What makes this lot special, however, is the cashed check issued to Reggie Jackson by the New York Yankees on June 30, 1979. (The check is made out to "REGGIE JACKSON", not "Mr. October".) Totaling $73.75, the check is signed by legendary Yankees traveling secretary William "Killer" Kane, a frequent target of George Steinbrenner's scorn over the years.
