1989 Green Bay Packers ONFL Rozelle Game Football Signed by Herschel Walker Packers vs. Vikings - JSA & MEARS

The Green Bay Packers finished off the dreadful 1980s decade on a high note. The team which was mired in lower half of the NFC Central division was the talk of football in '89. The Cardiac Pack won six games by three points or less. Although they were on the outside looking in for the playoffs, the '89 Pack will not soon be forgotten.

This Wilson ONFL (Rozelle) football was left behind at Milwaukee County Stadium and unearthed at some point. The pigskin is signed by Herschel Walker following the game. The ball exhibits light use. Walker signed a side panel in black marker. We are led to believe the ball was used in the Vikings vs. Packers 1989 tilt given the fact Walker signed the football. He only played in Milwaukee when the team used Rozelle footballs once - Nov. 26, 1989.
