Lot Number: 470
Description: Pittsburgh Steelers late 1970s professional model/quality helmet attributed to Mel Blount. MaxPro clear shell Kineomatic-21 model helmet is a classic style which was made popular largely due to use by some of the great names of the Steelers mid to late 1970s powerhouse teams. The offered example has number "47" decals applied to both front and back; the number which was worn by Hall of Famer Mel Blount. It appears, given a faint visible outline, that these decals either shifted slightly or are replacements however we are confident that the original underlying numbers were the same (47). Strong usage wear is evident throughout the exterior which is covered in scuffs and scrapes. The clips are not original and it is possible that the facemask is a replacement. A rare and popular style with relation to one of the most notable team members. Includes LOA from Hunt Auctions: EXEstimated Price Range: ($1,000-$3,000)
