Description

‘Pistol Pete’ pays up after storm damage

Spectacular athletic showman (1947–1988) who did much to popularize the game of basketball in the 1970s. He died of a heart attack at the age of forty while playing a pickup three-on-three game in a California gym. Maravich was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame in 1987 and named one of The 50 Greatest Players in National Basketball Association History in 1996. Personal check, 8.25 x 3, filled out and signed by Maravich, “Pete Maravich,” payable to Florida Windstorm Underwriting Association for $73.00, July 8, 1986. Maravich writes in the memo line, “Windstorm.” In fine condition, with cancellations to top of check, vertical fold to left side and a nice clean signature area. Accompanied by a 2002 letter of authenticity from Maravich’s widow, Jackie. Uncommon in any form. Pre-certified Steve Grad/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
