Rare signed first edition of Rus Bradburd’s acclaimed memoir, "Paddy on the Hardwood."

This copy is personally inscribed by Bradburd with "Go Tralee Tigers!" and a musical note, directly capturing the spirit of the book. It features black-and-white photography and endorsements from NBA legend Jerry West. The dust jacket is pristine, the binding is tight, and pages are crisp.
