Revisit the remarkable 1986 World Series with this New York Mets vs. Boston Red Sox collection of (7) items. In the 10th inning of a dramatic Game 6, Mets centerfielder "Mookie" Wilson grounded the tenth pitch of his at-bat to first base, where the ball miraculously got by Red Sox first baseman Bill Buckner, allowing Ray Knight to dash home from second, for a walk-off win that forced a Game 7. This stunning turn of events is recalled in fine fashion, with this selection of autographs and ticket stubs. Auction LOA from JSA for the signatures.

Bill Buckner single-signed ("7-8") ONL/Giamatti baseball (VG-EX);
