Attention, 617 area coders and lovers of Boston sports. This is the one threesome you should definitely have. Three items celebrating the feats of the Bruins' Bobby Orr, the Red Sox' Ted Williams and the Celtics' Larry Bird are signed with the same affection you showed these Hall of Famers in their glorious prime. A "Boys of Boston"-engraved Hillerich & Bradsby bat (MINT+) features their signatures (10/10) on the barrel. A 24- by 18-inch black-framed photo (MINT+) gathers them together, each holding their jersey. Their autographs on this piece rate a 10/10 and the entire piece comes with a letter of authenticity on the back. And finally, a super 41- by 17-inch plaque commemorating Beantown's holy trinity of superstars shows each in their playing days on three separate 8 by 10's which they signed (9.5/10). A silver-embossed rectangular plate under each picture recounts their highlights. No. 4 of 99 is carved into this limited edition.
