1956 Sports Illustrated Bob Cousy Signed Subscription SI Magazine Issue PSA 6.0 DNA 9 Auto HOF Slabbed
Offered here is an incredibly rare and visually stunning January 1956 Sports Illustrated magazine signed by Boston Celtics legend and Hall of Famer Bob Cousy. This iconic early Sports Illustrated issue has been fully authenticated and encapsulated by PSA/DNA, receiving a PSA 6 magazine grade along with a strong Auto Grade 9 for Cousy’s beautiful signature.
Featuring one of the most legendary basketball covers of the 1950s, this piece captures the elegance and popularity of Cousy during the formative years of the NBA. “The Houdini of the Hardwood” remains one of the most beloved and influential players in basketball history, and signed examples from this era are exceptionally difficult to locate — especially on such an iconic early Sports Illustrated cover.
The presentation is absolutely spectacular in PSA’s newer oversized magazine holder, which dramatically enhances the eye appeal, display quality, and long-term preservation of vintage magazines. The bold autograph contrasts beautifully against the historic cover artwork, making this an elite display piece for any advanced basketball, Celtics, Hall of Fame, or vintage magazine collection.
Given the age, rarity, and scarcity of authenticated signed examples of this specific issue, this is almost certainly the top pop or among the finest graded signed copies of this legendary cover in existence. Early signed Sports Illustrated magazines from the 1950s remain vastly underrated compared to signed trading cards and offer exceptional rarity and historical significance.
