1995 NFL Hall of Fame Enshrinement Signed Football (30) Bart Starr, Otto Graham etc. – COA JSA

This item is from Phil Tuckett’s personal collection. It took several decades within his career to amass these rare collectibles at events. The highlight is that it includes autographs of the most prominent entertainers, historical figures, and sports players Tuckett met along the way.

Presented from Tuckett’s collection is a Wilson white panel 1995 NFL Hall of Fame Enshrinement football signed by HOFers. It features 30 signers in black felt tip (“9”) including: Ray Nitschke “HOF 1978”; Ray Didinger; Otto Graham; Frank Gatski; Cornelius Bennett; Steve Largent; Lenny Moore; Kellen Winslow; Bart Starr; Gale Sayers; Willie Lanier; Doak Walker; Ted Hendricks; Lee Roy Selmon; Willie Davis; Dante “Gluefingers” Lavelli; Yale Lary and many others. The football does not hold air.

Phil Tuckett suited up for a single game for the San Diego Chargers in 1968, and his time as a professional football player consisted of a year-and-a-half spent mostly on the Chargers practice squad. One might surmise that Tuckett’s contribution to professional football was minimal, and they would be correct, until taking into consideration that after retiring as a player Tuckett spent the next 38 years working for NFL films. Tuckett won 30 individual Emmy Awards in 30 years while with NFL films documenting the NFL. Of particular note, Tuckett worked directly with Ed Sabol, the man who started and was a huge part of NFL Films.
