2022 Acquisitions

I was saving up for National but when this showed up on the bay I hit the buy it now pretty quick. Listed as a 1947 program, which it is. But there is a big difference between 46-47 and 47-48 and this is 46-47. Then the listed signature Chuck Connors. It is personalized so a nick for that. But there are 2 other signatures Nat Clifton and Harry Gallatin. Both Hall of famers and Knicks but both played later than 46-47. I wondered why they were on cover. When I hit Nat Clufton stats I saw the thread that connects these three. All 3 played pro baseball as well as Pro Basketball. So a nice group. On top of that Connors played in the game 1/18/47. The Rifleman only played in about 50 games over 2 seasons 46-48. So a signed program from a game he played is nice.
