The twin-engine jet fell 1000 feet short of the runway during an attempted landing and burst into flames. Munson was killed in the accident while two others were injured. Magnificent felt tip in-person signature and inscription, “To Joe, Thurman Munson,” on an off-white 5 x 3 card. In very fine condition. Pre-certified Steve Grad/PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
