Roger:

I was interested in asking a question on the Vick helmet that you have. Obviously the value of his items have gone down a bit - but did you buy or obtain the helmet prior to his legal troubles, or after?

Princip,

I would like to have the Shaun Alexander helmet if you ever want to part with it, sell or trade, please keep me in mind.

Attached are pictures of my Buffalo Bill's, Takeo Spikes from 2006 vs the Patriots. Also Micheal Vick's helmet worn every game in his last year, 2006.

Roger

Roger, Can I buy the Vick and give it to my Staffordshire Bull Terrier as a chew toy? Even better if his head is inside...

Good call Robert! This is the one he used just before he switched to the BD-9. Notice the three fastener holes on the side.

Re: Show me your Game Used NFL Helmet

you are spot on about the low positioning of the side decals - something the seahawks abandoned pretty quickly. speaking of largent - he must hold the nfl all-time record for most facemask styles used in a career! honestly, what was up with that? is there even a close second?

Re: Show me your Game Used NFL Helmet

...There is a pretty good red mark on the stripe of the helmet. Here is a photo of that.

Lofton? Just guessing...

Here is one for you..."Future Hall of Famer"...Bruce Smith.
1990 Game Used - worn in Superbowl and Probowl. Schutt Air Power.

In addition Robert, I have not found any good images of Smith from the SB. You have a knack for that. There is a pretty good red mark on the stripe of the helmet. Here is a photo of that.

Re: Show me your Game Used NFL Helmet

yeah, those are the same helmet. as far as the $1,700 lid is concerned, it was sold as a largent gamer - here's the only other photo i have of it...

I don't doubt it's a Largent, well maybe I do, until further proof. Only because, if this were the mask that he wore, at the time acquired, it was from the 1981-82 season. Thus, The decal placement is suspect, since, I've only seen them placed that low the first year, '76? Could be a different mask was put on, etc. etc. Nice, none the less. Thanks for posting these Robert. Might put this one up on my site as a 1976 helmet, w/Clip On 1 OPO Mask, and player unknown.
