Description: Important January 15, 1967 Curt Gowdy Super Bowl I broadcast "storyboard" sheets with related material. Pair of heavy stock sheets (approx. 10"x13.5") have been meticulously filled out on either side with detailed notes related to players on the Green Bay Packers and Kansas City Chiefs along with additional information used for color commentary.

Unitas, and letter of provenance from former Gowdy associate whom is a noted long-time collector: Overall EXEstimated Price Range: ($3,000-$5,000)
