Los Angeles Dodgers Hall of Famer pitcher Sandy Koufax has launched his very own sports memorabilia website — the first and only of its kind. SPS INC., the longtime agency of the three-time World Series champion, is overseeing operations of the site.
Fans have the opportunity to purchase both signed and unsigned items that are officially licensed by Koufax. Signed merchandise is very limited and many items will not be restocked once they are sold out.
Among the products up for sale include various autographed 16×20 photos of Koufax, signed baseballs and Dodgers hats with his signature. There’s also a couple of items that are jointly autographed by Koufax and Clayton Kershaw, including one with Fernando Valenzuela’s signature as well.
Once an order is placed, it will ship within 72 hours. All items are verified through Online Authentics or MLB Authentication and includes paperwork.
The majority of the proceeds from the sales will go to charity. In some instances, 100% of the proceeds will be donated to charity. Such items will be clearly marked.
Koufax believes creating a website that offers legitimate products was long overdue. Several third party auction websites have been accused over the years of selling fake and unlicensed items to collectors.
Kershaw marvels at Koufax’s curveball grip
Throughout much of his career with the Dodgers, Kershaw has faced endless comparisons to Koufax. The two left-handers have become close over the years and share a similarity in being regarded as the best pitchers of their generation.
During a recent appearance on former teammate Ross Stripling’s new podcast, “GOATS: On the Bump,” Kershaw discussed Koufax’s dominant curveball, marveling at the size of his hands and how he was able to throw different versions of it.
In addition to curveball grips, Kershaw also highlighted Koufax’s career dominance, if he would succeed in the current era and more.
