6. "THE GOLD BOOK" of the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, was an issue of 500 individually numbered books, luxuriously bound in beautiful genuine leather, with an engraved gold plaque to enter your name as owner of the book. The book contains twenty nine to thirty signatures, signed with gold ink, by Olympic Gold Medal winners. All books were signed by participants of the 1984 Olympics and by honorary guests and medal winners from the 1928, 1932, 1936, 1960 and 1976 Olympics at a special Olympic Book Signing Ceremony in Los Angeles after the 1984 Olympics, attended by athletes and high Sport Officials of the IOC, USOC and LAOOC, which were invited by sending a special invitation and program, which is very rare, because only 100 of them were printed and sent to President Reagan, Samaranch, the athletes and other invitees. 400 of the books without program, were sold to benefit young athletes at $ 2000.00 each and were mostly purchased by corporations, businesses and other large outfits. The books come with the certificate of authenticity, signed by the Chairman of the LAOOC Paul Ziffren, the very rare invitation and program and the list of the Medal Winners that signed the book. Our price is $ 500.00 plus shipping and insurance. There are a couple of books left with the signatures of Frank Lubin, the 1936 captain of the gold medal USA Basketball team in Berlin and Mack Robinson, the 1936 silver medal sprinter. The books with Berlin signatures are $ 600.00 plus postage and insurance, which includes the rare program, certificate of authenticity and the list of signed athletes. Since only about 60 Invitees showed up, we were able to purchase the 40 programs that were left over and which are extremely rare. We only have a few left, besides the ones that come with the handmade Wood Presentation Case. The price for the program alone is $150.00 each, with free postage anywhere in the world, or we can trade them for Olympic memorabilia. 7. "THE COMPLETE GOLD BOOK" as above, but only one of ten books, in a handmade Custom Mahagony Presentation Box, as was presented to President Ronald Reagan, Vice President George Bush, IOC President Juan Antonio Samaranch, Mayor Tom Bradley and the three LAOOC officials Harry Usher, Paul Ziffren, Peter Ueberroth and one was given to the President of the USOC in 1984. We were able to purchase the two cases that were left and have one for sale. This priceless wood case could have easily been sold or auctioned for between $10,000.00 and $15,000.00 with the complete book of 34 signatures that was sold in 1985 for $3,000 with the Program and Certificate of Authenticity and is available through our Open Auction or can be bought now for $8,500.00 complete with the 34 signature Book, the Program and the Certificate. You may bid for this rare item on our website at "Open Auctions". Photos for the above items will be available as soon as time will permit, since I do not have enough help and most of the items can also be viewed in the three picture galleries on this website. We will post more items as I get to it. If items are quoted for what they sold in 1984, to compare with our reduced prices now, we can prove this anytime.
