OT - Early significant football awards auction, including 1924 UConn fob

[Adios]

These are up for auction. Need a donor to buy and donate these items to the football program (or their personal box deposit). Show the world UConn football is no slouch. Items like these are better than cards and other sports memorabilia. For obvious reasons.

1908 Harvard fob

1920 Buffalo All Americans fob

1924 UConn fob

1925 Pottsville Maroons ring

1928 Pottsville Maroons coal fob

1947 Chicago Cardinals fob

Just have to add, the dark spot on the UConn fob is the reflection of a camera. It's clean, otherwise.

Someone bid on the UConn fob but not the Harvard one?!?!? We are relevant!

Do we get a piece of the National Championship for 1924 for being undefeated?

Our schedule wasnt strong enough. The highlights were beating Trinity in Hartford and tying Tufts in Boston. Tied Springfield in Springfield, too.

Yale went undefeated that year, too. Beat UGA and UNC in New Haven to start the season.

Did we beat the Willimantic YMCA?

Auction house added to the description of the UConn fob today. Makes me wish this collection never had to be put up for sale.

Were we really rocking the block C in 1924? Why did it vanish for 80 years?

We went to marketing ourselves as UConn.

Bump. Ends on Friday.

Steal prices compared to other items selling, so far.

Last day. Bidding closes for the public at 10 pm and then goes into extra time. New photo added for the 1947 Chicago Cardinals fob, showing the player's name engraved.
