Offered here is a rare official souvenir program from the 1956 East-West All-Star Basketball game in Kansas City, Missouri that showcased the top talent in college basketball to benefit Shriner's Children's Hospital. The program has been autographed by three basketball Hall of Famers in Wilt Chamberlain, Bill Russell, and KC Jones. The impressive program has remained in mint condition with practically no blemishes throughout.

Chamberlain's autograph can be seen on page 1 and appears to be one of the earliest known Chamberlain signatures. He would have still been in high school at this time, which is why he is not featured in the program. Russell's and Jones' autographs are on page 11 next to their photographs on the team roster. A true one-of-a-kind collectible. Accompanied by a Beckett COA for the autographs.
