Awesome rescue mojjax! I would have hated to see those end up in the landfill. I can make out a couple of signatures on there - Bob Vogel (Tackle) from the Colts, and Hall of Famer Merlin Olsen (Defensive Tackle) from the Rams. Very cool and special considering Olsen passed in 2010. Nice job.

There's also Buddy Dial , Sam Baker , Frank Ryan , Pete Retzclaff + a bunch more that are faded , hard to read . Thanks SD - I was having a hard time figuring out Bobs last name . It's a ''V'' !

Great save. Was not Merlin Olsen also on TV? Might be a different guy.

Mojjax,
As a vintage football memorabilia collector & buff all I can say is: I nominate you for the dumpster diving all-pro team for 2016 --- well done!
