First man, along with Sherpa Tenzing Norgay, to climb Mount Everest.
Fantastic signature, cut from a larger poster but still retains a great image of an older Hillary, signed in black felt tip:
'Because it was there!'
Ed Hillary
Mt. Everest
May 29th 1953
The first line of course remembers the famed Everest explorer George Mallory who, potentially, was truly the first to ascend the mountain. When asked "Why do you want to climb Mount Everest", he famously retorted "Because it's there".
The autograph has been slabbed and authenticated by PSA/DNA.
Hillary, a most prolific signer, very RARELY added the date of his ascent or the inspirational first line.
