Lot #1840:

1960s Green Bay Packers Signed Cuts - Lot of 7 With Vince Lombardi Henry Jordan Bart Starr Lionel Aldridge - JSA

Autograph collecting didn't take off until the 1980s. So when Vince Lombardi and his Green Bay Packers were forging a dynasty in the 1960s, getting autographs wasn't a huge deal. One collector sought out many of Lombardi's Packers, and Lombardi himself, in search of autographs.

Offered are seven cut signatures, each inscribed To Doug. Headlining the list is Lombardi followed by Henry Jordan. Since Jordan entered the Hall of Fame after his death, his autograph is a tough find.

Others who signed cuts include: Bart Starr, Lionel Aldridge, Bob Skoronski, Willie Davis and Jerry Kramer. Most have a crease or two. The Lombardi has tape residue on and near the autograph. The penning is still strong.
