1969 NY Jets Team-Signed Super Bowl 3 Framed Display
Super Bowl III: A Historic Upset Immortalized
An Unforgettable Game
Super Bowl III was the first to officially bear the trademark name “Super Bowl,” and it certainly lived up to that nomenclature. It is regarded as one of the greatest upsets in the history of professional sports. Joe Namath personally guaranteed his overlooked and undervalued AFL Jets squad to victory over the heavily favored NFL Baltimore Colts, whose veteran Hall of Fame legend Johnny Unitas came in off the bench and led the Colts’ only touchdown drive of the game. The final score was NY Jets 16 – Colts 7.
A Unique Commemorative Display
This exquisite custom black and green matted framed display measures 21” x 25”. It paints an awesome depiction of the game script and is a Limited Edition Lithograph, #43 of 300, crafted by renowned artist Ron Lewis. This piece is signed by 25 members of the Super Bowl Champion NY Jets, including:
