The 1966 Piatigorsky Cup was on of the greatest chess tournaments in US history. It included 3 world champions, Bobby Fischer, Boris Spassky and Tigran Petrosian along with US great Sammy Reshevsky, Borislav Ivkov, Miguel Najdorf, Wolfgang Unzicker, Bent Larsen, Lajos Portish and Jan Hein  Donner. Pictured is a rare program from this event signed by Bobby Fischer along with Lajos Portish. See my other forum for the 1963 Piatigorsky Program signed by all the participants.
