Footballs featuring the genuine Autographs of the 50's-era Colts are highly sought by collectors. Presuming authenticity, values can range dramatically. Key factors are: the placement, size and clarity of the the star players' signatures (the bigger and bolder, the better), the type of ball (is it an "Official NFL" ball?), and the all-important overall condition of the ball and signatures. The signatures of Mackey, Moore, Berry and Unitas are of particular importance. The "provenance" - the who, what, when and where of a signed ball's history, may also add value if documented. If genuine, your ball would be worth $250 to as much as $500, depending on year and all the aforementioned factors. An absolutely pristine signed official ball would be worth as much as as $700. With autographs, a picture is truly worth the proverbial thousand words, and can save alotta time in the authentication, appraisal, and selling process. ++ Please feel free to contact me at stockyard2000@aol.com with pictures and/or additional questions regarding this ball or any vintage Sports Memorabilia. I've seriously collected memorabilia for 30+ years and am always interested in nice items and "finds." I'd really like to know more about this ball.

John Heisman attended Brown University, where he played football and graduated in 1894. He also studied at the University of Pennsylvania, but his time at Brown is most notable in relation to his educational background. Heisman went on to become a prominent football coach and is best known for the Heisman Trophy, awarded to the most outstanding player in college football.
The second Heisman Trophy was awarded in 1932 to John Heisman, the legendary football coach for whom the award is named. Heisman was recognized for his significant contributions to the game of football, particularly in promoting sportsmanship and excellence. The trophy was first awarded to a player in 1935, but Heisman himself was not a player; rather, he was influential in shaping the sport during his coaching career.
