Lot #545:

Early 1990s Emmitt Smith Dallas Cowboys Game-Used & Autographed Helmet (JSA)

Emmitt Smith is the NFL All-Time leading rusher with 18,355 and holds the record for career rushing TD’s (164) and 100 yard games (78). He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2010 and helped the Cowboys to Super Bowl victories in 1992, 1993 and 1995. Riddell manufactured silver helmet with the Cowboys “Star” logo decal on each side. The clips on front have the year “92”. On back is a “COWBOYS” decal covering the “Riddell” outer padding. “E. SMITH” appears vertically on back on blue dynotape. Adjacent is the “NFL” logo shield which appears to be covering another decal along with the “American M” sticker. On the inner dome is the “VSR-4” label along with the size “L 7-1/4 – 7-3/4” label. All inner padding is intact along with the chin strap and facemask. Emmitt has signed the left outer dome in blue marker and is hardly visible. This helmet is properly tagged, was presented to us as game-used and in our opinion shows appropriate use with multiple gouges to the outer dome. Accompanied by a LOA from JSA.
