Finally got around to finishing up the second of six totes — and it didn’t disappoint. When I hear Dan Marino, this is the picture that instantly comes to mind from the March 1992 issue. Flip it over and you’ve got one of the best ever on the back cover — Reggie White. And then, tucked in there, another all-time classic: Bo Jackson.

So many great memories wrapped up in these covers — the players, the stories, and the era they defined.

What cover or player instantly takes you back?

November 1992 Beckett Basketball #28 - Larry Bird

There are certain players in sports who just have that special something — the kind of player you couldn’t help but like, even if they were beating your team. Larry Bird was one of those guys.

“The Hick from French Lick” wasn’t the most athletic, he wasn’t the flashiest, but he was as tough and competitive as they come. The way he played the game — the swagger, the confidence, the trash talk and the skill to back it up — made him impossible not to respect.

Bird isn’t just a Celtics legend… he is a basketball legend. The kind of player who made you love the game a little more every time you watched him play.

Some more finds out of tote number two. Still enjoying the backs as much as the front covers.

Hello All,

Need your assistance and advice!

What would you do to an autograph that you have sent in to all three major authentication companies and they all have failed it? Let’s assume that the autograph was bought from a major and extremely reputable auction house excluding eBay!

Would you discard the autograph? Will you keep it for a few years and try again? I know some may try to sell it… but I am not asking for this option…

I would love to read your comments and suggestions!

Thank you!

Started in on tote number two and I keep finding gems!! It’s amazing how much cool stuff has been tucked away all these years. Honestly, this has become the perfect way to unwind at the end of the day — just me, the magazines, and a little nostalgia.
