Autographs are the main fare with this multi-signed 1978 Kansas City Baseball Awards Dinner program. Illustrious Hall of Famers and legends of the game were honored at this long ago event, which was held when the Kansas City Royals were riding high atop the American League West Division. While moderate wear is noted on the corners and spine of this vintage program, it still presents handsomely, with a bold graphics, nice gloss and a Royals blue twine binding. Located on the front cover are (12) autographs averaging ("8-9") potency unless noted, with: "Cookie" Rojas, Jim Rice (HOF), Roger Maris (d.1985), Paul Splitorff, "Whitey" Herzog (HOF), Joe Burke (Royals GM), Rod Carew (HOF), Billy Martin (d.1989), Denny Matthews (sportscaster), Frank White ("7"), Al Hrabosky with "The Mad Hungarian" inscription, and (1) undetermined at top right. Auction LOA from JSA.
