    Florence Delorez Griffith-Joyner
    [4]
    (
    née
    Griffith
    ; December 21, 1959 – September 21, 1998), also known as
    Flo-Jo
    , was an American
    track and field
    athlete.
    She is considered to be the fastest woman of all time,
    [5]
    [6]
    [7]
    and the world records she set in 1988 for the
    100 m
    and
    200 m
    still stand. During the late 1980s, she became a popular figure in international track and field because of her record-setting performances and flashy personal style.
    Griffith-Joyner was born and raised in
    California
    . She was athletic from a young age and began running track meets as a child. While attending
    California State University, Northridge
    (CSUN) and
    University of California, Los Angeles
    (UCLA), she continued to compete in track and field. While still in college, Griffith-Joyner qualified for the 100 m
    1980 Olympics
    , although she did not actually compete due to the
    U.S. boycott
    . She made her Olympic debut four years later, winning a silver medal in the 200 meter distance at the
    1984 Olympics
    held in Los Angeles. At the
    1988 U.S. Olympic trials
    , Griffith set a new world record in the 100 meter sprint. She went on to win three gold medals at the
    1988 Olympics
    .
    In February 1989, she retired from athletics. Griffith-Joyner remained a pop culture figure through endorsement deals, acting, and designing. She died in her sleep as the result of an
    epileptic seizure
    in 1998 at the age of 38.

    Shipping and Packaging details: I ship everything with cardboard backing. Additionally, I slip all autographed photos inside sturdy photo-protective sleeves. Payment details: Typically, I ship paypal payments right away. PAYPAL is recommended. International shipping will be higher as all international orders go through the Global Shipping program.  How I obtained my autographs, and why I promise a FULL MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE: As a kid, from roughly the years 1965 to 1973, and later from 1974-the present, I have amassed an enormous collection of autographed sports and celebrity memorabilia. In most cases, using Jack Smalling's baseball address lists and other assorted address lists, I wrote to both active and retired baseball players, sending them letters, requests for signatures, and self-addressed-stamped envelopes. This is how I obtained thousands of autographs. I also obtained many autographs in person at area parks and hotels.In the 1980's and 1990's, I travelled the country doing shows (20 National Conventions) and would buy quantities of autographs through player signings. I have every reason to believe that all of the autographs I'm selling are absolutely authentic. I stand by every item I sell. Upon purchasing an item from me through eBay, you may return that item, in the condition in which I shipped it to you, within 14 days of receipt of that item if you are not satisfied with the item.   I am selling each item "as is", per the guarantee I've promised above. All the old time autograph dealers know me and the professional authenticators will vouch for my reputation as well. I do this on a part time basis, so sometimes emails take a day. I have worked hard for my feedback rating. The last thing I want to do is damage my credibility, so if you have legitimate concerns about any item you win from me on eBay, I'll make every effort to remedy the situation to your satisfaction. PLEASE NOTE: Most items come with certificates of authenticity from outside companies (JSA and PSA predominantly; they are the best). I have spent lots of money with third party authenticators and have had very few come back without passing. Sincerely, Joe Binder , Downers Grove, Illinois
