PINCUS, Arthur. New York Giants Pride. (Markham, Ontario): Game Day Publishing, (2008). Quarto, original pictorial boards, original dust jacket. $1650.
First edition of this richly illustrated chronicle of the New York Giants' 2007-08 championship season, signed by six players from that Super Bowl-winning team, including inspirational quarterback Eli Manning, receivers David Tyree—whose "helmet catch" is often considered the greatest Super Bowl reception of all time—Plaxico Burress and Amani Toomer, defensive end Michael Strahan, and leading rusher Brandon Jacobs.
This richly illustrated volume, with color photographs on every page, chronicles the Giants' 10-6 regular season and their playoff run, which culminated in their victory in Super Bowl XLII over the undefeated and heavily favored New England Patriots, 17-14, overcoming incredible odds to become the first wild card team to win the Super Bowl. The volume has been signed by these six instrumental players on the verso of the front free endpaper, facing the half title.
Mild rubbing to dust jacket. A fine and desirable multiply signed copy.
