"Papa Bear" comes out of hibernation, with this signed 1975 PRO! football program cover only. Founder, owner, and longtime head coach of the Chicago Bears through four different 10-season stints, George Halas is as big a credit to the NFL, as anyone ever associated with the league. A member of the 1963 Hall of Fame inaugural class, and an 8X NFL champion, Halas is seen in an illustration on this program cover, which is dated 11/2/75, for a game between his Bears, and the Miami Dolphins. Thoughtfully located on a plain field area near the top, Halas' blue ballpoint pen autograph shows 8-9 strength. Auction LOA from James Spence/JSA.
Opening Bid $50.
