If you live in the Midwest, this Saturday, the 28th of March, you need to load up the car, hit the ATM and head to 2764 East 55th Place Indianapolis,IN That’s just 250 Miles from St. Louis, 185 miles from Chicago, and 120 Miles from Louisville but in the end may just be worth the drive. Ripley Auctions will be holding a Premier Single Owner Sports and Entertainment Estate sale of Alex Henig. You ask, who was Alex Henig? I’ll let Ripley’s Auctions answer that “Alex was a high-profile, energetic and well-connected promoter and ticket agent in California from the 1950s until his death in 1993. This amazing collection of memorabilia has remained in the family until now. It will be sold in entirety, without reserve, in a series of monthly auctions.” The auction starts at 10am (Indianapolis time) and as I can tell includes over 400 lots of items. Some of those items include the following; 1982 San Francisco 49ers Signed Team Mounted Poster Signatures include Dwight Clark and Roger Craig , Joe DiMaggio and Ted Williams Signed Photo , USFL 1985 Houston Gamblers Game Used Signed Football Approximately 28 signatures including HOF QB Jim Kelly. and many more items.
