Thank you for the post, Sports-rings. Your post was very informative. Like I wrote, I have always been interested in the 1925 Pottsville Maroons because of where I live, but it's seems kinda telling IMO that there are still no bids on the listing. I actually had previously checked out the various replica Super Bowl rings on eBay for comparison and saw there are all kinds of sub $100 rings on the site.
The ring is a cool item for someone living in this area, but I have decided to pass on the listing at that price. Thanks to each of you for giving your thoughts.
From what I understand, the rings were created in the early 1960s by a local jeweler named Russ Zacko. Zacko's father, Joseph, owned the sporting goods store that outfitted the team with jerseys in the 1920s.
