In 1997 after spending his first 11 seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles Randall Cunningham found himself taking snaps from center for the Minnesota Vikings. Still a year removed from his breakout season of 1998 when he threw for 34 touchdowns for the Vikings Cunningham did throw for six touchdowns over three starts that season. This lot includes his Minnesota Vikings game-worn and autographed Riddell helmet (size LARGE) from his first season in Minnesota. The helmet shows plenty of game wear with multiple scrapes evident throughout the crown. In addition it has the Velcro inside the ear flap for attaching the microphone only found in QB helmets for relaying the play call. The purple helmet includes the Vikings logo on either side and comes complete with Riddell chin strap intact. Cunningham has signed across one of the Vikings logos in fine-point black marker and added his uniform number "7". The autograph rates at least a 7/10 in our book.

From 1986-2002 Dave Rahn served an integral role within the San Francisco 49ers organization. Starting as a public relations and media coordinator he soon took over as director of travel and team services where he was responsible for all football operations including travel and accommodations practice schedules lodging and meal planning. He later managed the concert tours for Fleetwood Mac Sheryl Crow and Lionel Richie. In 2014 Dave Rahn passed away in after a courageous 2-year battle with cancer. "He was like a wheel and all these spokes from those years came from him" said his close friend former linebacker Gary Plummer. "He kept the 49ers family from those times together." His collection includes dozens of 49ers game-worn and autographed items gifted by the many players and staff members who were loyal friends to Dave and will forever remain close to his loving family.
