A framed black and white photograph of Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, presented to Pelé on June 19, 1977, the date of the match between the Cosmos and the Tampa Bay Rowdies that drew 62,394 fans, which at the time was the largest crowd ever to attend a soccer match in the United States. The Cosmos defeated the Rowdies 3-1, aided by a Pelé hat-trick. The photograph is inscribed "To Pele/ You made/ this happen!/ 6-19-77 Tom Webb." It is assumed that Tom Webb is Thomas Webb, a referee who officiated in the American Soccer League and the North American Soccer League and a member of the National Soccer Hall of Fame. 10 1/4 by 7 1/4 inches, overall $300-400 £210-280 Categories: PELÉ
