In 1966 many things were unknown about the growing sport of American football & the National Football League, even the name of their championship. With the AFL & NFL merging in 1966, the game would be publicly known at that time as “First AFL-NFL World Championship Game” or the “Supergame.” The NFL (now NFC) powerhouse Green Bay Packers led by Bart Starr & Vince Lombardi would take on the best from the AFL (now AFC) in the Kansas City Chiefs. Little did the League & it’s fans know, but the world's most watched single sporting game had been born, the Super Bowl. This spectacular team-signed 1966 Green Bay Packers reunion 16.25" x 19.75" mounted photo is among the nicest to ever be offered for public auction. With nineteen (19) stunning signatures in black felt tip pen (with fading to many of the signatures), notables including: Bart Starr, Jim Taylor, Willie Wood, and Dave Robinson! Overall the the photo remains in good condition, having been mounted to a foam board for preservation. Vintage NFL memorabilia has been on the rise, with merger type items such as this seeing a large spike recently. Accompanied by a full Letter of Authenticity from PSA/DNA.
