1974 Joe Montana Signed  Letter of Intent
<B>1974 Joe Montana Signed "Letter of Intent" to Attend Notre Dame University.</B></I> One of the most important documents in the long and glorious history of Notre Dame football is presented for the ultimate Fighting Irish fan, the paperwork that brought the future Hall of Fame quarterback Joe Montana to South Bend, Indiana. The standard 8.5x14" document begins with the earthshaking words "The University of Notre Dame Awards to Joseph C. Montana a Grant-in-Aid covering Full-Football for the Academic Year(s) 1975-76." The eighteen-year old phenom's full "Joseph C. Montana" autograph is a perfect 10/10 at the close. Included are several newspaper clippings with titles like "Notre Dame gets Montana of Ringgold" and "Montana Going to Notre Dame," each with photos of the long-haired youngster signing the paper we present here. Will one generous booster win this lot and donate it to the Notre Dame archives, earning their everlasting gratitude? Or will it end up in the private collection of the school's proudest alumnus? We'll have to wait for the gavel to fall for that answer. <I>LOA from PSA/DNA.
