1974 7017 Tudor Date Day

This DD was awarded to a player in the 1974 Cotton Bowl. He played for Nebraska and went on to a six year career with the San Diego Chargers. He obviously did not spend much time wearing this almost perfect example.

Cool shot! That really shows the contrast of big modern versus slim vintage.
