ITEM DESCRIPTION

 
Reserve: $1,000.00
Winning Bid:  
Auction Date:11/30/2005 9:00 PM EST

The 1971 NFL season was the NFL’s 52nd. The season ended with Super Bowl VI when the Dallas Cowboys defeated the Miami Dolphins 24-3. It’s also notable for being the season in which the Boston Patriots changed their name to New England Patriots after they moved to their new home field, Schaefer Stadium in Foxborough, Mass. This Topps Football Vending box is fresh from the case and sealed like the day it was first produced. Some of the greats you’ll probably find inside are Tommy Nobis, Johnny Mackey, Johnny Unitas, O.J. Simpson, Dick Butkus, Gale Sayers, Lance Alworth, Bob Lilly, Roger Staubach, Ray Nitschke, Bart Starr, Len Dawson, Buck Buchanon, Willie Lanier, Bobby Bell, Deacon Jones, Merlin Olsen, Larry Csonka, Paul Warfield, Bob Griese, Fran Tarkenton, Joe Namath, George Blanda, Fred Biletnikoff, Terry Bradshaw, Joe Green, Jack Ham, Sonny Jurgensen and Charlie Taylor.
