Fresh off the heels of his sensational 1970/'71 rookie campaign in which Hall of Famer Pete Maravich averaged 23.2 points a game, "Pistol Pete" would continue his breathtaking "on the court" antics seemingly each and every day throughout the remainder of his career. This outstanding 1972 UPI Type 1 Proof reveals the Atlanta Hawks superstar donning his classic home #44 jersey as he drives towards the basket against the N.Y. Knicks star forward and fellow Hall of Famer Dave Debusschere. Measuring approximately 8" x 10", the right-side caption provides a vivid account of the event, with the verso reflecting a light UNITED PRESS INTERNATIONAL credit stamp. One of the NBA's finest all-time players, Maravich's unparalleled ball-handling and propensity for scoring a seemingly unlimited number of baskets has earned him a rightful place among the prestigious list of the 50 greatest players in basketball history!
