Five negatives are of Mikan: two 5 x 4 in. and three 2¾ x 2 1/8 in., of Mikan in 1949 in his Minneapolis Lakers uniform. There are three of the larger negatives of Cincinnati Royals Hall of Famers <B>Oscar Robertson</B> and <B>Jack Twyman</B>, from 1960, as well as a smaller one of the two and one of Robertson alone. Also, two larger and one small negative of <B>Ralph Beard</B>, one of the &#34;Fabulous Five&#34; from Adolph Rupp&#39;s Kentucky team that won its first NCAA championship in 1948, and one large and three small negatives &#40;two with his CCNY winning team&#41; of <B> Nat Holman</B>, legendary player and coach who coached CCNY to both the NCAA and NIT titles in 1950. <BR>Estimated Value &#36;400-600. <BR><BR>Our item number 79921<BR><IMAGES><P ALIGN=CENTER"><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/38jpegs/079921.jpg"> </P></IMAGES> "
