The NFL enjoyed a tremendous growth spurt when it merged with the AFL back in 1970. Terms of the deal were agreed to in 1966, and the bobble head producers were "Johnny-on-the-spot," with a merger series of bobble head figures that included AFL team bobbles with NFL Shield logo decals on the bases. (4) Pleasing examples from this 1968 NFL/AFL merger series turn up here, with:



Boston Patriots (EX-MT) due to a 1" hairline crack on the back of the helmet, and a very small factory firing flaw on the back of the pants, otherwise presents as a top shelf piece.



Pittsburgh Steelers (NM+) a radiant piece, with "Sports Specialties" sticker under the base.



Miami Dolphins (VG-EX+) with a compound hairline crack on the back of the helmet, and moderate wear on the head opening, the front presents very handsomely, with strong decals, and there is a "Sports Specialties" sticker under the base.



New Orleans Saints (EX) with a scratch on the back of the helmet, a smaller scratch on the back of the pants. minor touches of wear on the decals, and adhesive staining below the helmet logo decals.
