Graded PSA 6 EX-MT, certification number 102562216. The card you see in the photos is the exact card you will receive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe Hall of Fame Autographs insert pairs a foil rainbow background with the Naismith Hall of Fame logo and the induction year printed vertically alongside the image, 2015 in Dampier's case. The signature is a full clean blue autograph on the signature panel, guaranteed by Panini on the back. This is one of the few licensed modern autographs you will find of him in a Colonels uniform.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eLouie Dampier is one of the most important players in ABA history and one of the least talked about. He was a six foot guard for Adolph Rupp at Kentucky, the centerpiece of the 1966 Rupp's Runts team that reached the national title game, and a two time consensus second team All American. Cincinnati took him in the fourth round of the 1967 NBA draft and he signed with the upstart Kentucky Colonels instead, a decision that shaped the rest of his career.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eHe played all nine ABA seasons, all of them with the Colonels, and finished as the league's all time leader in points, three pointers made, assists, games played and minutes played. He is the only player to appear in the playoffs in all nine ABA seasons. He made seven All Star teams, led the league in three point percentage at .387 in 1973-74, and won the 1975 championship feeding Artis Gilmore and Dan Issel. Three seasons with the San Antonio Spurs followed after the merger, and the Naismith Hall of Fame finally called in 2015.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eCondition: this one graded PSA 6 EX-MT, so please set your expectations accordingly. A 6 on a modern card means visible wear somewhere, typically in the corners, edges or centering, and the photos show the actual slab from both sides so you can judge it for yourself before you bid. The autograph itself is bold, complete and undisturbed. The holder is straight from PSA, unopened and unaltered, with no cracks. Look the pictures over closely, since they are part of the description.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eShipping and handling: same business day shipping on orders placed before 6:00 AM EST.
