<p>By Susan Lulgjuraj | Beckett Football Editor</p>
<p>The Immaculate Reception is a moment in sports that fans won’t ever soon forget. Now, a collector will be able to own a special piece from that game against the Pittsburgh Steelers and Oakland Raiders.</p>
<p><strong>Mike</strong> <strong>Silverstein</strong>, who covered the game for ABC Radio that day, is auctioning his locker room press pass signed by  Steelers <strong>Franco Harris, John &#8220;Frenchy&#8221; Fuqua</strong> and <strong>Joe Greene</strong>.</p>
<p>&#8220;I want to share this piece of history with someone else, especially if some good can come out of this and can help an organization,&#8221; Silverstein told the <a href="http://www.post-gazette.com/stories/sports/steelers/immaculate-reception-press-pass-up-for-sale-668138/">Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.</a></p>
<p><span id="more-56347"></span>The proceeds from the auction will go to benefit the Transitional Services Inc., of Pittsburgh, an organization that helps those with mental disabilities.</p>
<p>According to the report, Silverstein’s brother was born with Down Syndrome and lived at one of TSI&#8217;s centers for 26 years.</p>
<p>&#8220;We need to take a second look at mental health issues. If the government can&#8217;t do anything about it, then we need to step to the plate and do something,&#8221; Silverstein told the newspaper.</p>

<p>By Susan Lulgjuraj | Beckett Sports Card Monthly Editor</p>
<p>The Hall of Fame title creates a certain feeling. Athletes voted in are usually the best of the best, the greatest of a generation.</p>
<p><strong>Press Pass</strong> is bringing a product that is full of autographs from only these athletes. Every autograph in its Hall of Fame Legends Edition will be of a Hall of Famer member such as baseball&#8217;s <strong>Nolan Ryan</strong> and <strong>Rickey</strong> <strong>Henderson</strong>, football&#8217;s <strong>Joe Greene</strong>, golf&#8217;s <strong>Jack</strong> <strong>Nicklaus</strong> and basketball&#8217;s <strong>Larry</strong> <strong>Bird</strong>.</p>
<p><span id="more-49590"></span>Hall of Fame Legends Edition will feature four autographs in every tin. The cards will come in various levels such as base autos, Fan Favorites and Champions.</p>
<p>All cards are numbered to 99 or less and four parallels that are numbered to 10 or less. In addition, collectors can find short-printed red ink autographs and inscriptions.</p>
<p>Hall of Famers are usually favorite players of collectors, evoking personal memories for fans. Press Pass seems to use athletes from many sports with a focus on the most popular. Other players in the product include <strong>Chuck Noll, Nick Buoniconti, Randy Couture, Ozzie Smith, Stan Musial, Ronnie Lott, Art Shell</strong> and <strong>James</strong> <strong>Worthy</strong>.</p>
<p>There are also cut autographs of players such as <strong>Babe Ruth, Jackie Robinson</strong> and <strong>Ty</strong> <strong>Cobb</strong>.</p>
<p>There are two exceptions to the Hall of Fame rule.</p>
<p>Andrew Luck and Robert Griffin III will also have autographs in Hall of Fame Legend Edition as Rookie Fame autographs.</p>
