November 16th- Mark Bavaro and Phil McConkey
Last Saturday we had our appearance at Last Licks Thornwood with Giants greats Phil McConkey and Mark Bavaro. Before the appearance both guys came up to our office to knock out the private items. Mark arrived first and immediately began signing all of our Notre Dame multi-signed pieces. These things are really shaping up and are almost ready to be unveiled. I have been running around for months working on this project and am so proud of the results. I cannot wait for you all to see the finished product. Mark signed for about two hours which gave us a chance to talk Notre Dame footballs and the big Giants/Cowboys game. Interestingly enough the Irish were a week removed from their devastating loss to McConkey's alma mater Navy. Phil arrived about twenty minutes after Mark yet somehow finished almost forty minutes before Bavaro (some guys are just faster than others) Aside from single signed items and ND pieces we were able to get some incredible dual signed celebration photos (in both 8x10 and 16x20). Mark and Phil were such a big part of the Giants great history and after spending a few hours with them I defnitely developed a much bigger apprecation of what they meant to the franchise.
