Default O/T Hank Aaron Autographs Cheap!

Found these pictures in one of my drawers. Hank Aaron signing autographs at the Flint Mall in Flint Michigan. Sometime in 1980's I believe. Also, I think that is a NET54 member getting Aaron's autograph. Maybe he will chime in when he sees the picture.

Yes, Hank used to do $2-3 signings for the Special Olympics and Big Brothers back in the late 1980's. I have a 1969 OPC that was signed at one of these events. It was the first autograph I ever obtained.

Is that a young George Wallace (show promoter) sitting next to Hank?

Yes, pretty sure that is George Wallace.

Here is a better picture of him.

$3, that is a seriously good deal.
