Taken on Wall Streets’ New York Stock Exchange floor, this engaging full-color photo is signed by all four members of the New York Jets’ famous New York Sack Exchange front four of: Joe Klecko, Marty Lyons, Abdul Salam and Mark Gastineau. The nickname was inspired by a fan’s bed-sheet banner unveiled during a 1981 game at Shea Stadium and the group was invited to ring the New York Stock Exchange’s ceremonial Opening Bell in November of the same year. The photo is signed in bold black Sharpie by each of the Jets fearsome front four with their uniform numbers (Klecko, 73, Lyons 83, Salam 74 and Gastineau, 99) inscribed. Signatures are authenticated with PSA/DNA sticker #MO4827.
