Ken Gardner of Kid Cannon Sports in Fremont, CA has one. He was at the National Sports Collectors Convention last week, showing off all 46 publications, each carrying the autographs of the MVP from that particular game.
He’s got a beautiful Bart Starr Super Bowl I, signed in silver Sharpie and just recently snared a Super Bowl XLVI issue bearing the autograph of Eli Manning, who led the Giants to another championship.
