Very scarce original program from Wilt Chamberlain's legendary performance on 2 March 1962, where he netted an incomprehensible 100 points, the only NBA player to achieve such a record even to this day. The un-televised classic between Chamberlain's Philadelphia Warriors and the New York Knicks was held at the Hershey Arena on 2 March 1962 -- during this game, Chamberlain shot 36 of 63 from the field and completed 28 of 32 free throws. Also during this 1961-62 season, Chamberlain secured his unequaled record of 50.4 points per game. The original program entitled ''The Wigman'' features a portrait of Chamberlain on the cover and team line-ups and stats inside. Program measures 7.75'' x 10.75'' and runs 23pp. Cover is starting to separate at the folds, has light toning and some edge wear. Centerfold with team rosters has been annotated with pencil and pen, apparently by the game's attendee who checked off Chamberlain's growing point total. Overall very good condition. A fantastic tribute to Chamberlain's basketball prowess.
