2008-10 Carson Palmer Cincinnati Bengals Game-Used Helmet
Iconic NFL Helmet: A Testament to Football History
Unveiling a Piece of Football Legacy
Step into the world of football history with this remarkable “SCHUTT” manufactured “AIR ADVANTAGE” helmet. This extraordinary piece is not just a helmet; it is a symbol of the grit and glory of the game. Adorned with decals and stickers that narrate its journey, this helmet is a must-have for any serious collector of football memorabilia.
Detailed Features and Authenticity
The helmet boasts a size “LARGE” decal adjacent to the left ear hole, accompanied by numerous “NOCSAE” recertification stickers from 2006, 2008, and 2010. These details underscore its authenticity and storied past. The presence of a circular piece of velcro near each ear hole and “WARNING” decals above them further enhance its historical value.
Adding to its allure, the helmet features a “SCHUTT” manufactured black facemask with the code “CAJ”. The white rubber bumper proudly displays the Bengals “B” logo in black and orange, while the “SCHUTT” facemask clips are marked with “1 10”. A white chinstrap completes the ensemble, ensuring that this helmet is as functional as it is iconic.
Significant Markings and Provenance
On the back of the helmet, the player number “9” is emblazoned in black, signifying its unique identity. Above this, the green “NFL” sticker indicates microphone capabilities, a testament to its use in professional play. Adjacent to the left is the official “NFL” shield decal, and to the right, an American flag decal alongside an injury warning decal.
This helmet is properly labeled and was presented to us as game-used. In our opinion, it shows excellent use with scuffing and numerous transfer marks to the outer dome, further attesting to its authenticity and historical significance.
