Lot 1099: Larry Bird Game Worn Sneakers
ITEM DESCRIPTION
|
||||||||||||
The most strongly documented Bird game worn sneakers we've ever seen from this era. LOA from the Celtics groupie who acquired them explains that she frequently hung out "back stage" with the players, and that on a particular day she encountered Bird coming out of the locker room with his sneakers in his hand and jokingly asked for them. She was quite surprised when he handed them over. Doubt the story? Included in the lot is a photo of this lady beside Bird, who looks quite young, holding these shoes. Also here is a program she got signed that day, with autographs from the entire Celtic team. The big green Converse All Stars show good use and just scream "Larry Bird!" And so will all your jealous friends when you show them this fantastic pair.
