1998 Topps Stars Rookie Reprints John Hannah Auto #7 PSA 9! Patriots! HOF!

Description: This lot features the 1998 Topps Stars Rookie Reprints John Hannah Auto #7 PSA 9! --- Hannah joined the Patriots in 1973 as the 4th overall pick in the 1973 NFL Draft. He played his entire professional career in New England. While considered somewhat short by NFL standards, Hannah made up for this with great speed and quickness as well as powerful legs. Hannah excelled as a pass protector, run blocker and as the pulling guard on sweeps. Hannah's commitment level to football was very high and he expected the same from each of his teammates, sometimes becoming quite angry if he did not feel that they were complying. Hannah started the first thirteen games of his rookie season of 1973 until a freak leg injury forced him to miss the final game of the year. Along with tackle Leon Gray, the two formed what was generally considered the best guard/tackle tandem in the NFL during the mid to late 1970s. Gray and Hannah also combined with tight end Russ Francis to form one of the strongest left-side trios in the league. Hannah anchored the 1978 offensive line that set a still-standing NFL record with 3,165 rushing yards. Hannah missed only five games out of a possible 191 because of injuries during his career. He also missed the first three games of the 1977 season due to he and Gray both holding out because of contract disputes. The Patriots finished with a winning record seven times and had only three losing seasons during Hannah's thirteen-year career. In 1985, Hannah helped guide the team to its first AFC title and Super Bowl appearance. Hannah retired from the NFL after playing in Super Bowl XX. Here’s a great looking example of the 1998 card here. This beauty has 4 great looking corners, 4 super nice borders and a blazing surface with full gloss, color and clarity. The reverse is crisp and clean with pack fresh background color, near perfect centering and no marks or blemishes of any kind. Buyer adds 2.50 for ship insured, US customers only.
