Presented here is a Miami Dolphins helmet signed by 40 members of the 1972 undefeated Miami Dolphins. The 1972 Miami Dolphins are the only NFL team to finish the regular and postseason undefeated in the Super Bowl era, storming through their regular season schedule and defeating the Washington Redskins in a classic Super Bowl VII. Helmed by Don Shula and supported by a cast of characters including Larry Csonka, Nick Buoniconti, and Larry Little, the Dolphins perfect record had only been seriously challenged since 1972 by the New England Patriots in 2007.
This Riddell helmet is white, with a Dolphins logo on the right and left sides, and features orange and aqua trim running down the length of the helmet. There are 40 signatures in blue marker on this glossy Dolphins helmet signed at a reunion, with key signatures from Hall of Famers Don Shula, Larry Csonka, Bob Griese, Larry Little and Paul Warfield. Other key signatures include Earl Morrall, Mercury Morris, Otto Stowe, Jim Kiick, Maulty Moore, Bob Heinz, Garo Yepremian, Larry Seiple, Jim Dunaway, Howard Twilley, Jim Langer, Jim Mandich, Larry Ball and Marv Fleming. The signatures are bold and clear, and the helmet is in excellent condition and comes with an LOA from JSA (X60791) for the signatures.
