Default BRUCE SMITH - 1941 Heisman winner, rare

Bruce Smith - 1941 Heisman Trophy winner. I have two items pencil signed by Bruce Smith. One on a banquet program from the Shamrock Athletic Banquet at St. Augustine and one on a four leaf clover souvenir from the banquet. I sold one signed program a few months ago and the seller who attended the dinner as a young student told me he had two more Smith signed items and would probably offer them to me later on. I just bought the other two items. Bruce Smith is quite a rare autograph and I could only find two Bruce Smith autographs on the internet. An Album Page for $2000 and a Bowman card for $4000. Of Heisman Trophy winners, his signature is the second toughest to find behind the autograph of Nile Kinnick. The two other autographs on these pieces are Heisman winner Johnny Lujack and Babe LeVoir star running back at Minnesota. The program has a light stain and the clover has a stain and a crease. See my scans. I have a copy of a newspaper article about the dinner. The inside of the program lists LeVoir, Lujack and Smith as participants. Program $525. Four leaf clover $425.
