Made in the United States, this autographed cut paper is a must-have for any racing memorabilia enthusiast. Mario Andretti is famous for being one of the greatest and most versatile race car drivers of all time, achieving success across multiple disciplines, including winning the Formula 1 World Championship (1978), the Indianapolis 500 (1969), the Daytona 500 (1967), and the 12 Hours of Sebring, making him a legend in motorsports and pop culture. His ability to win major races in different series, his legendary status in America and globally, and his compelling life story from refugee camp to world champion all contribute to his enduring fame. Note from seller: This signature was originally acquired by the mother of the owner of this auction store, Vault and Valor Emporium, in the early '90's, while Mario Andretti was visiting her job to have dental work (the mother's scripted handwriting below the authentic autograph clarified the signature for her son, who was an oblivious pre-teen at the time). Unfortunately, PSA does not attribute the source when performing an autograph-only, basic tier grade. Other signatures from various interactions are listed in other auctions, and dual-graded Photos with Autographs are being processed at PSA. Please follow our store to see what arrives!
