Chalk this one up into things you rarely, if ever, see. This is an in-person autograph of his Holiness the Dalai Lama, the exiled leader from Tibet. This one will never be sold, as my family has connections to him. My maternal grandfather was part of the Indian consulate and attaché to the exiled leader in Dharamsala, India in the 1960s. You rarely see autographs of his, especially on a Topps card! In fact, I don’t know if I’ve ever seen another one in my life. Happy to have this one authenticated by JSA and in a clean, clear, crystal CGC slab.

Jim pitched for all or parts of 10 Major League seasons as a swingman going 41-48 with a 3.88 earned run average and seven saves. In his post playing days he co-founded and was the first president of the Major League Baseball Players Alumni Association. Jim Hannan would have turned 87 today but passed away back in 2024 at the age of 85.

Large collection of vintage 35mm slides from California Government files related to highway construction. Images include highways and surrounding areas, road construction, ribbon cuttings with city / government officials and more. Images in this post are made using an app that automatically crops and enhances images from 35mm slides. Very interesting historic collection

I think regardless of political leanings the autographs of politicians are not worth the paper they are written on!

Amazing original art piece "Fill er up and check the oil" signed Yardley Jones of The Telegram and dated Thursday July 10 1969. Likely newspaper published but acquired as-is without history. Apollo 11 was July 16–24, 1969 and the first space flight to land humans on the moon - Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin

Amazing piece of space history!
