It is a legitimate autograph too. I have seen it already today.

Pretty good buy for $0.25!

I will try to get a photo of it to post later.
I have a similar find, at an estate sale a few months ago. For $2, I found a toy rubber ball given out at Pete Maravich's last home game with LSU. It was signed by Pete and his dad.

I love hearing about garage/estate sales.
