Description

Two items: a color matte-finish 8 x 8 photo of Wooden and one of his basketball camp attendees, signed and inscribed in black felt tip, “Best wishes, Randy, to you and yours always in all ways, John Wooden,” with reverse bearing "A Kodak Paper" watermarks; and an unsigned handwritten note from Wooden on a 7.5 x 2.25 trimmed card, which is addressed to the recipient of the photo, in full: “It pleases me to be pictured with you, Randy, and it has been a real pleasure to have had you in my summer basketball school. Please remember that success in anything comes only from peace of mind which can be attained only through self-satisfaction in knowing that you have done your best. Condition (mental, moral, spiritual, and physical), fundamentals, team spirit and industriousness are essentials." In overall fine condition, with Wooden tracing over his inscription on the photo after an unsuccessful first attempt.
