1961 Fred Kail Green Bay Packers Bookend Prototype Figure

Fred Kail produced one of the first NFL licensed statues when he made his famous statues. Still widely collected among football enthusiasts, Kail statues forever have a niche in the hobby.

This early '60s Kail prototype is mounted to a wood base and has a field goal post as the backdrop. There is minimal chipping near the football cleats but this beauty is imminently displayable and represents one of the first marketing forays for the NFL. This is the ultra rare bookend prototype as well.
