What an awesome item

I would love to have something like this. I guess I'm not familiar with this. Did all players have to sign in or something? The history behind this thing has to be crazy.

That is a very cool!
Just hope the new owner isnt a stupid slab freak and go and ruin this 1 of a kind piece by chopping it all up....
Its obviously authentic, duh


PS. the seller should have said how many total sigs are in the book, but I guess someone could estimate it.

It's super pricey at $9k.

And it's a great piece is it sits.

That so cool!!!!!!!!!

Yeah I wish I knew the number of signatures in there as well. 9000 does seem pricey but if you start getting a bunch of guys in the 100+ range they all add up pretty quick.

During this time the Bears still played their home games at Wrigley Field up until 1970. Also worked for the Los Angeles Dodgers Spring Training Faculty from 1969-1973.

Here's the images I saved from the auction..

Hard to believe he only got $2,500 for it. Might have done better with an auction house.
