At the bottom, Shepard writes, “Joe—Sorry, this won’t impress your handball opponents—congrats!” Accompanied by a photocopied certificate of authenticity from Garino, stating the note came from his collection. In fine condition, with punch and staple holes at top edge. Pre-certified Scott Cornish and RR Auction COA.
