Rare football items you'd like to see

I have been looking and ask everyone I know that collects 1935 Chicles if they have a box or have even seen a picture of a box??

I agree, I have never heard or seen of any 35 Chicle unopened packs or display boxes. I have a pretty extensive FB display box collection (including a 1934 Sports Kings Varsity FB box) - not saying is doesn't exist, but I have never seen an empty Chicle display box.

That is an awesome Redskins list! Here are a couple of the items mentioned above:

Overland Candy Baugh



Kelly's Zip Sticker of Bob Hayes (sorry about the poor image on this one - when I get the chance I'll scan/post mine)

Mike comes through in a big way! Thanks for posting those. You all are hitting on some really rare stuff. Keep it rolling!

I haven't seen any unopened packs or boxes for Chicles either. My understanding is that a bunch of original Chicle artwork came up for auction many years ago and so there should be 20 or so of these floating around out there. I've only seen the Caddell Mike has shown in the past.

I'm a big fan of Jim Thorpe PCs but only have a few. I'd love to see some of them posted here.

A couple more recent Redskins items I've never seen an image of, or seen come up for auction that I would love to see:

1968 Spalding Advisory Staff Bobby Mitchell

1976 Nabisco Sugar Daddy Series 1, #6 Sonny Jurgensen
(not the more common #4 Jurgy found in Series 2. I've heard speculation that the Series 1 #6 doesn't actually exist, that instead it seems to be a checklist error? Can anyone confirm?)

Thanks for sharing mightypope!

Very interesting that his jersey number is listed as #9. I was not aware he ever wore that number. Do you think that's really him in the photo? Or was it a mistaken photo of a teammate?
