Every Super Bowl-winning NFL team likes to think its efforts will be long remembered and for many that’s true enough but no team can lay claim to that lofty designation more than the 1972 Miami Dolphins the only team in the Super Bowl era to finish the season and playoffs undefeated. Their unrivaled status seemingly has been tested almost every year in the 40-plus seasons that have ensued as pundits and fans watch as undefeated NFL squads are quickly or slowly sorted out right down to the last survivor. It’s a system that has helped keep the likes of Shula Griese Csonka Warfield & Co. as household names in eras far beyond their original glory. With that imposing historical record comes this pristine official Riddell Proline Dolphins helmet to tell that story filled as it is with a remarkable 45 autographs from that historic club an unusually high number of signatures all carefully placed throughout this incredible helmet with some players adding their uniform number inscription. The helmet was signed at a 35th anniversary reunion under the auspices of Mounted Memories which lines up autograph guests at major conventions throughout the country. The lineup includes many of those household names who surge back into the headlines every year: Bob Griese Don Shula Mercury Morris Larry Little Jim Kiick Earl Morral Howard Twilley Marv Fleming Marlin Briscoe and others. The contrast of the bold black Sharpie autographs on the white helmet is compelling which probably seems appropriate for an artifact with this particular pedigree. As noted the helmet is essentially as-issued and problem free
