Don Moorhead helmet
The problem is, it's extremely tough to tell for sure. In looking over photographic evidence, it's definitely not a 1972 helmet (as the sellers claims) as the bars he wore across his helmet that year were different. It could be a 1974 or 1975 helmet as shown here:

The striping seems accurate as does the numbering. The only concern I have with it is that it doesn't appear as shiny as the photos I have, and the position of the logo on Ebay seems to face "up" whereas the programs and yearbooks show it more or less facing straight across or even slightly down.
The caution flags really went up when I read this from the seller:
The seller is from Michigan and I have reason to suspect that Don ended up back there. But to contribute such a valuable collectible to dear old auntie's garage sale seems a bit much.seller wrote:....I just got this at a garage sale, the woman told me it was her nephew's and he played football in Canada
Any help as to it's authenticity would really be appreciated. I think this is going to sell for big bucks.
Where's Robbie when you need him?
