“Wilson” manufactured leather football with three white panels. This reunion ball reads “Official NFL” along with Commissioner Pete Rozelle’s facsimile signature. The football has been signed by 41 members of the 1972 Super Bowl Champion Miami Dolphins who are the only team to complete a “perfect season.” Notable signatures include Hall of Famers Bob Griese, Larry Csonka (1972 Pro Bowl), Larry Little (1972 Pro Bowl & All-Pro), Paul Warfield (1972 Pro Bowl), Jim Langer and Head Coach Don Shula (1972 NFL Coach of the Year). Additional signatures include: Otto Stowe, Bob Kuechenberg, Hubert Ginn, Mike Kolen, Al Jenkins, Maulty Moore, Norm Evans, Doug Crusan, Marv Fleming, Howard Kindig, Garo Yepremian, Manny Fernandez, Earl Morrall, Mercury Morris (1972 Pro Bowl), Larry Ball, Jim Dunaway with the added inscription “78”, Bill Stanfill (1972 All-Pro), Curtis Johnson, Ed Jenkins, Charlie Babb, Jesse Powell, Vern Den Herder, Jim Kiick, Marlin Briscoe, Jim Mandich, Bob Heinz, Dick Anderson (1972 Pro Bowl & All-Pro) and Howard Twilley. All signatures are done in the same blue ink and in our opinion rate a strong 8 overall. The football is in MNT condition. Accompanied by a LOA from JSA.
