Emilio Estevez Signed Photo 8×10 – COA JSA

In 1992, Emilio Estevez found the career longevity that escaped other Brat Packers by starring in The Mighty Ducks as Coach Gordon Bombay, a lawyer and former pee wee star and minor hockey prodigy looking to forget the past, forced into coaching a pee wee hockey team as a form of community service. The film turned out to be one of Disney’s most successful franchises. 

Estevez signed this 8×10 color photo from his “Mighty Ducks” days in blue felt tip with the personalization, “To Ira – Best Wishes – ’94”.

These photos originated from immense archives. They were part of an acquisition of millions of original photographs as their assets were liquidated. The photographic items in this collection are now available for the first time publicly.
