Tony LaRussa

I claimed this Custom Tony LaRussa Autograph with the Cubs, Tony appeared in 1 game for Chicago in 1973.  This is a Frankenstein as it's a Topps 1973 format with Tony pictured with the Cubs and the autograph is a sticker that was removed from a Company certified card and attached to the custom card interesting and probably the only one like it. It will go nicely in the Baseball HOF autograph collection.  This was made by and I claimed from @DJCards7 on Twitter and part of the weekly #CCC_Friday thread.
