AUTOGRAPHED
8x10 Inch Black and White Photo of
AJ Foyt, Jr,
the first Four Time Winner of the Indy 500 and his good friend and long time sponsor,
Jim Gilmore
of Gilmore Broadcasting in Kalamazoo, Michigan as they enjoy their friendship alongside of the AJ Foyt owned, Jim Gilmore sponsored #51 NASCAR Stock Car in the 1970's
.
The autograph is signed "To old Jim, your friend always, AJ Foyt" and is also sign by Foyt in a blue ball point pen.
While it's only my opinion, to me, AJ Foyt, Jr is the Greatest American Race Car Driver to ever take the wheel. This would be based on his talents, diversification in types of race cars and records that support that. He is a 7 Time USAC Indy Car Champion with 67 wins in his career, the first Four Time Winner of the Indianapolis 500,
the only driver to win the Indy 500 in both a front engine and rear engine race car twice
, 7 Winston Cup NASCAR wins, which the series is now referred to The Monster Energy Drink Series, a win at the 24 hours of Lemans, a 1972 victory in the Daytona 500 driving for the Wood Brothers, 2 wins at the 24 Hours of Sebring in Daytona and hundreds of USAC Dirt Champ Car, Stock Car, Sprint Car and Midget car victories in his amazing career. He also won the 1999 Indy 500 again as a car owner with Kenny Brack at the wheel.
I have tons of AJ's stuff including all of his books, hundreds of autographed photos, programs, posters, his 45 rpm record "The Ballad of AJ Foyt", contracts and thousands of more items, so check back.
Please ask questions as needed and thanks.
