Show off your clear shell helmets

Re: Show off your clear shell helmets

Here's a good shot of Curt wearing the MaxPro model, however does not appear to be a clear shell, and you can see some residue under the decal, indicating it's adhered to the outside of the shell. Not sure what model MaxPro this is, anyone?

That is definitely a MaxPro and it is gorgeous!
I thought Curt Warner wore a MaxPro briefly with the Seahawks (maybe brought one with him from Penn State)?

He did, and I have a decent picture of him wearing it, although I never got the impression that it was the clear shell model?

Ok, I scanned my copy of a September 24, 1979 issue of the Seahawk Report, where there is what I thought was a MacGregor clear shell, is more likely a MaxPro clear shell? I do believe the decals are adhered to the outside of the shell, although the image resolution is not very good, and it's tough to tell.

Aside from my custom Seahawks Bill Kelley clear shell, this is the only image I have ever seen of another Seahawks clear shell helmet.

Thanks Mike, hopefully we will get another Seahawks clearshell up there : )

I have a 1978...or '79 copy of the Seahawk Report, where they feature a game used Seahawks MacGregor clear shell on the front cover. Only thing is, the decals were affixed to the outside of the helmet. When I get a chance, I'll post it here.

Shipp_96,
Glad I was able to help with some nostalgia.
I feel the same way whenever I see 70's helmets, facemasks, etc. and I have been watching a lot of Hulu's NFL Films from that era to keep my fix going : )
