Super Bowl 3 Program - Jets v Colts Need Help on Identifying

[Alex251jets]

Can someone help me tell the difference between the official scarcer game program that you can only pick up at the stadium vs the news stand edition and mail order edition besides the $2 price tag on the "replica"...

Any help is appreciated - I just bought one for my elder dad and want to ensure I was not burned. What are the differences?

Thanks so much

I am not 100 percent sure but I believe the mail editions began the next year with the Chiefs and Vikings.

Thank you, Mike. Any more insight to this would be great.

Right now:

The $2 cover is the newsstand edition and you believe the mail editions started the next year.

You are referring to the Super Bowl 4 program. There is only one version of SB3. The SB4 program has a line of printing right on the cover under the top Super Bowl printing. You will know it when you see it, although it is in small black print. On the stadium version this is not there.

Thanks Duluth, maybe you can help.

I'm referring to SB III between the Jets and Colts (the first "Super Bowl" AFL vs NFL) There are two versions from what I believe. The collector's edition for $2 and the stadium exclusive version for $1.

I was wondering if you knew if there were any other ways to ensure the program is the authentic one sold at the stadiums?

Thanks!

Sorry for the mix up. I believe there is a version that is significantly thicker with more advertising inside than the other, but I do not know which is which or if there is any other difference
