Hey all,
Been reading here for years but just somewhat recently joined as a member to post things.
This is a proline helmet autographed with a authentication of the sig by Steiner. The helmet is what I believe to be game used or issued for Kelly. The helmet has lots of dings and dents to it that look legit and the helmet style and look goes consistent with what jelly wore most of his career I believe.
The inside has got a "12 Kelly" sticker that is attached and also appears to be legitimate. Can anyone and all please provide any input as to whether they think this indeed was game used and if so, possibly when? Inside of the helmet under the left ear pad is the code inscribed on the helmet "93016777". Does anyone know how to interpret this? Is it manufacturer code? Maybe 93 is the year 1993? Ultimately I'd love to get this authenticated somehow and or photo matched to a game, however everywhere I have contacted so far seems to think it'd be near impossible.
Let me know if anyone thinks they can help or know someone to contact personally and I can send some additional photos please!
I Am a diehard Bills fan and although ultimately I grabbed this for my own amusement to keep, I'd like to hope it was a sound investment also . At a minimum it is a nice authentic helmet with a authentic signature . This is my first game worn collected item, been collecting auto jerseys and auto cards as well.
Thanks everyone!
