I see Jerry Mays, whose last year was 1970, and Jack Rudnay, whose first was also 1970.

Maybe my eyes are going, but I can't find Otis Taylor's sig on there, but I can make out Johnny Robinson and Emmitt Thomas, Mike Livingston.
Being as the football says, American Football Conference, it had to be NET 1970. Otherwise it would say American Football League.

I have to own my lame claim to Chief fandom - being relocated here to the USA in 2000, living in Chicago the first 7 years and watching a really crap team in the Bears, moving to Lawrence Kansas 13 years ago, and only then latching on to this great movement that is being a Chiefs supporter. The knowledge on this forum is awesome. |

I'm pretty sure that's Marvin Upshaw in the bottom left of Picture 7. That would make it a 1970 ball if he and Jerry Mays are both on it.

So where did you get that ball? It would have signatures of a slew of Hall of Famers if they all signed it - Buchanan, Lanier, Bell, EThomas, Robinson, Stenerud, Dawson, and Culp.

Around that time, maybe a little later, we used to go to William Jewel for training camp. The players would come directly from the field to mingle through the fans as they headed for the locker room. As a kid, I would run up to individual players, not recognizing most of them, and ask for their autograph. I had a bunch of autographs on a piece of notebook paper (sigh). No doubt half of them were training camp fodder. But the paper got wet somewhere along the way (sigh) and it went by the wayside many years ago.

Boxed it with a tonne of other stuff and it never got opened until last weekend when I went looking for a turn of the century (19th) baseball cap I also knew I'd bought many years ago. I'd just sold a cool 1878 Princeton College baseball pass to a collector who asked if I had anything else of interest. I remembered the cap and went looking, and along the way in the same plastic tub found this football, a Kobe signed basketball, and some other odds and sods. Maybe my most fun weekend in forever discovering a 'find' in my own house and it didn't even cost me anything. |

.....been asked if the football is available for purchase and I guess it is if the right number can be worked out.
