Following 12 seasons of stellar play for the Minnesota Twins, Kirby Puckett was enshrined in baseball's Hall of Fame in 2001, his first year on the ballot. Offered here is an array of items related to that induction, including tickets to the ceremony and subsequent Hall of Fame game played by the Marlins and Brewers. A ticket for the annual Hall of Fame bat sale is also included along with the limited edition (815/1000) brown bat that is issued annually. Other items include 3 2001 induction day programs, 2001 Hall of Fame hardbound program, 2000 Hall of Fame program, 11 newspapers featuring the induction on the cover (some duplicates), (2) "I Was There" pins, (2) Puckett picture fans, 2001 Friends of the Hall pin, 2001 Induction pin, and a 2001 induction stamp cachet. To round out the lot is a mint ONL Budig ball signed on the sweetspot in flawless ink with the added "HOF 2001" inscription. The autograph comes with a letter from PSA/DNA.
