    Not the World League of American Football from the 1990s, but rather the early/mid 1970s WFL. I don't have any, but I (and I'm sure others) do have nostalgic leanings towards the old WFL (I was in high school back then, and Chicago had two teams in the league, the Fire and the Wind). Anxious to see what YOU might have!

    I remember the old WFL and wish I had some game usedmemorabilia. The days of Csonka, Kiick, Warfiield, George Sauer Jr, etc...

I understand you collect Atlanta Falcons jerseys. Do you have any ex-University of Hawaii players (Blane. Gaison; June Jones; Rich Miami; David Toloumu; etc) Falcons jersey? I would be interested in possibly making a trade with one of my Hawaiians jersey.

      Wish I could help, but I've never had any Falcons jerseys of ex-University of Hawaii players

        Since 40 years ago today the WFL folded, I thought I would add to this fine thread on the WFL

          Greg,

          Thanks for sharing. It's hard to believe that it has been 40 years since the WFL folded. Here are a few more items from my collection. Note in the photo of the WFL game balls that there are several variations of the 1974 ball (4 with orange stripes). Gary Davidson's signature is in a slightly different position on one of the balls, and it is absent on another ball. The normal-looking ball with the white stripes is from 1975.

            Great jerseys Mark - Love the Maynard (was a huge fan of his growing up). Also, got to love the Sun jersey with those colors.

            Thanks for posting those
