Description: Jim Plunkett attributed New England Patriots professional model helmet c.1970s. Rare clear shell helmet (with color/graphics under laminate) has a pair of "MacGregor" logos on the back noting model ("MH100") and size ("7 3/8"). Also applied on the back are player number "16" decals as worn by Jim Plunkett from 1971-75 (no other player again wore the number in the 1970s or 80s). Usage wear is particularly evident on the exterior with some scattered scuffs/scrapes to the shell. "Geodetic Suspension" interior padding is fully intact as are the facemask clips. The helmet appears to compare favorably to a number of images of Plunkett taken during the 1974 season. After winning the 1970 Heisman Trophy, Plunkett joined the Patriots and later went to win a Super Bowl with the Raiders. Includes LOA from Hunt Auctions: EXEstimated Price Range: ($2,500-$3,500)
