Riddell 1950s RT2 Football Helmet Maroon Under Clear Shell Vintage Chin Strap

Description: PLEASE READ CAREFULLY: THIS IS NOT A REPRODUCTION! For your consideration is this extremely rare vintage and original Riddell RT2, in nice adult size 6 7/8 Football Helmet, from the late 1940s-early 1950s, complete with original wrap around leather jaw pads, old school 6-strap suspension and leather crown pad. Helmet has iconic 32-hole venting in top of shell. also comes with matching vintage two tone tan leather chin strap. One of the interesting and endearing things about this helmet is the staples and repair which is covered over by another layer of the clear plastic. You rarely see these old Tenite helmets with repairs. Based on shape and number of holes in the top of the shell, as well as consideration of the suspension, our best estimate would indicate this helmet was manufactured in the late 1940s to early 1950s. This beauty is painted maroon under the clear shell with white painted center stripe and has the Riddell trademark under the clear shell on the right rear side. Teams which used this color combination include Texas A&M from 1946-1948. PLEASE NOTE: we are not claiming this helmet was issued or worn by Texas A&M. Have you ever seen one exactly like this one? Will you ever see another?! Please see pictures for condition. Maroon paint under the shell has looks great and still shows through beautifully! And of course the center ridge is painted appropriate white as the Bears wore for several years during the 1950s. See photos of Bbb for reference. Looks like it is ready to take the field! Very rare and awesome display piece for any football fan! Don't miss this one. PLEASE NOTE- ITEM PICTURED IS ITEM YOU WILL RECEIVE. WE ONLY HAVE ONE OF THESE IN STOCK! All of our helmets are for display purposes only! They are not to be used or worn for competitive play. Westbrook Sportscards has been in business since 1988.
