Lot 281. 5 Photos Signed by HoF Wrestlers Bruno Sammartino and Larry Zbyszko. Sammartino was Zbyszko’s mentor before they engaged in a long-running feud. After challenging Sammartino, Zbyszko became one of wrestling’s premier villains. A member of the Professional Wrestling Hall of Fame since 2002, Sammartino was inducted into the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) Hall of Fame in 2013 by Arnold Schwarzenegger, a long-time friend. In subsequent years the Sammartino-Zbyszko feud ended, and in 1915, Sammartino inducted Zbyszko, whose real name is Larry Whistler, into the WWE HoF. Sammartino died in 2018 at the age of 82. The autographs are nm-m 8 and better on color photos with multiple images of the two wrestlers. Kevin Keating authenticated the signatures. In addition, each comes with a ticket from a 2011 signing in Pittsburgh. Minimum Bid $75.
