Re: The Dave Kingman Thread
Dave Kingman game used Giants (71-74), Mets (81-83), and Phoenix Firebirds helmets (87).
All customary flapless helmets, as was Kingman's preference. To my knowledge he never wore a flapped helmet - ever. I have never seen any of his other helmets offered, and I know the collector who owns Kingman's Mets -75-77 helmet and his Yankee helmet; not likely will those ever leave his residence.
The Firebirds helmet was worn during Kingman's short comeback in 1987. I obtained it in or around 1989 via Robb Wochnick and Sports Warehouse. He told me Wendell Kimm sold him the helmet (Firebirds manager at that time). When I first met Kingman in March of 1992 in Florida he seemed shocked to see the helmet, acknowledged it was his.

Wow Bob, the awards are super. Are those coming directly from Kingman? Players almost never part with those types of awards.
