I don't post a lot of my pickups as I never think of it. I was going to show this to a friend via email so I thought I would post it here also. This is a 7½ x10½ envelope signed the the 1984 U.S. Women's gold medal winning basketball team during the Olympic games. This team has eight coaches and players who are members of the Basketball Hall of Fame: Cheryl Miller, Teresa Edwards, Anne Donovan, Denise Curry, Lynette Woodard, Coach Pat Head Summit, Assistant Coach Kay Yow and 2020 inductee Kim Mulkey. Donovan, Summitt and Yow are all deceased.
Summitt, as Patricia Sue Head, won a silver medal in the inaugural women's basketball tournament at the 1976 Olympics.
Anne Donovan won two gold medals and was the head coach of the U.S. Women's Olympic team winning a gold medal in 2008.
Lynette Woodard was the first female member of the Harlem Globetrotters.
Teresa Edwards is the most medalled Olympic basketball player, male or female, with 4 golds and one bronze.
Cheryl Miller is the sister of Reggie. He followed his sister into the Basketball Hall of Fame and as Olympic Gold medalist.
