I was stationed onboard the USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) from 1995-1999.  In 1997 in preparation for a year long overhaul period in the shipyard, many things were discarded.  Walking down the pier one day on my way to my car I encountered a shipmate carrying a bunch of stuff from the ship's trophy case.  I ask where he was going and he said to the dumpster.  He had a large converse show with many autographs on it and I offered to help him with his load.  I carried the shoe on past the dumpsters and to my car.  When I got home I was able to get a closer look at the autographs.  It says on the side "To the US Navy Sixth Fleet"  The auto graphs that I can make out are Akeem #04, (not Hakeem) Bandaid #3, Frank Johnson #15, Tim McCormick #40, Calvin Murphy, Robert Reid #50, Jim Peterson #43, Michael Woodson #42, Rudy Tomjanovich, john Lucas #5, Alan Leavell #30, Walter Berry #6. Any information on the probable authenticity and value of this item would be greatly appreciated.
