Hi Chris:

FYI, there are NO TAGS with the Hartland Football statues, just the BB save for Maris who has no tag. Only thing in the Football boxes would be a brochure and a decal sheet.

As for the Packers, they are some of the most common of the Hartland FB.

Whitey- Were there any other colleges offered or just LSU? If only LSU I wonder what the connection was?

There wre certainly other colleges with great programs and followings in that era like Notre Dame, Texas and Alabama.

That's interesting. There is a seller on ebay that is selling a Packers hartland with a repro tag and box... must be a "fantasy" piece.

Hey Chris:

As you say the listing you are referencing has REPRO tag. Repro may not be the correct moniker as there was no original. So, yes, I guess a fantasy tag would be a better description.

There is also a repro base on this statue. Repro bases AND boxes have been produced for both baseball and football Hartlands as well as REPRO (not fantasy) tags for baseball.

Hi Mike:

LSU was the only college football statues produced. Supposedly prototypes were made for Notre Dame which was sent to the University and never returned as well as a U of Washington (?) for Ron Vanderkallen who if memory serves had a fantastic Bowl game out of nowhere.

This was around the time Hartland was doing the FB statues. As well as the LSU program with Billy Cannon who I think was the big story at the time, Heisman winner etc.

Fred,
Do you have any blank Packers statues, with original decal sheets/box?

Chris:

At the moment I do not have any extra Packers statues.. I do have a Packers RB box with decal sheet.
