1960-89 Rozelle Footballs

[Runscott]

Are all of these 'brand-new' balls really vintage, or are they re-making them?

[Runscott]

Okay, I'll try a different angle - can anyone recommend a football forum to ask such questions, and to discuss vintage football? Thanks

Scott,
Maybe if you can post photos of which balls you are talking about. I have never heard of any rozelle model balls being reproduced.

Thanks Keith, they are all over ebay and also Amazon.com - it's the 1970-89 model that didn't have 'The Duke' stamped on it. Below is one of many on ebay right now. I was only curious about this because I have a ball from that era and just wanted to make sure it 'could' be the game-used ball I was told it is.

they are part of the Wilson "Throwback" series. You can also get the Duke and others made before the current model for about $100.00 retail. Bulk purchase of cases can be had for $45.00-60.00 each but you need a Wilson account

Thanks Jim. Are they distinguishable from the originals?
