HOOKED ON AUTOGRAPHS BY JOE GALIARDI
Hooked on Autographs by Joe Galiardi
is an unforgettable collection of anecdotes and yarns that highlight what it
took for the author to obtain 425 celebrity signed golf balls since golf legend
Arnold Palmer autographed his first ball in 1989. In this unusual hobby memoir,
the author describes many of his favorite stories in garnering and gathering
autographed golf balls from a colorful parade of best-loved golfers, famous
entertainers, notable sports stars, and U.S. presidents. Until now, there has
never been a golf book published about one person’s all-out passion to collect
famous autographs on golf balls and relate the fascinating and humorous stories
behind the widely known signatures. The stories will delight golfers and even
non-golfers. Hooked on Autographs sells for $15 plus shipping costs of $4. The
netbook proceeds are donated to the Paralyzed Veterans of America, Bay Area
& Western Chapter. The author, who personalizes all books sold through him,
can be reached at joejudy1983@att.net.
