Authentic and original Minnesota Vikings RIDDell Classic RK2 Football Helmet with thin mil decals of the 1960s Minnesota Vikings and customized to represent the helmet by All-Time great and Hall of Famer, Fran Tarkenton.

This beautiful specimen has Tarkenton’s number 10 written on red tape inside helmet as might have been done by Vikings equipment managers for purposes of identification.

Helmet also includes iconic Riddell BD-9 facemask as worn by Tarkenton during his career!

Helmet is built to represent the famous 1960s configuration of the RK suspension helmet with 12-spoke suspension made exactly as the originals from the 1960s.

PLEASE NOTE: WE ARE NOT CLAIMING THIS HELMET WAS ISSUED OR USED BY Mr. Tarkenton or the Vikings. Please see photos for amazing condition of helmet. Photos are for reference only and not included with purchase.

Will make a stunning display and discussion piece, and looks like it is ready to take the field!

Read About Riddell Classic Kra-Lite RK2 Football Helmets-

A classic step back in time! The classic shape of the Riddell RK's slightly flared shell and handsome metal rivets are complemented by the attachment of an original Riddell two bar facemask.

These helmets are recently manufactured Riddell Pro-Line Authentic On Field helmets! The adult size 7 3/8 suspension webbing is identical to the original right down to the same brown thread that was used to stitch it together. Thin mil decals exactly as the originals, real leather jaw pads, gray toned strap and identical front style labeling makes this helmet indistinguishable from the original.

They are painted gray inside just as the Riddell vintage originals from the 1960's, and also have the "KRA-LITE" and "RIDDell" trademarks branded into the rear of the helmet, unlike some other helmets you may find on the market these days which have neither. Do not settle for a substitute. Demand the real thing!

PLEASE NOTE- THESE HELMETS HAVE BEEN DISCONTINUED BY RIDDELL IN 2007, AND ARE GETTING DIFFICULT TO FIND! ITEM PICTURED IS ITEM YOU WILL RECEIVE. WE ONLY HAVE ONE OF THESE IN STOCK! All of our helmets are for display purposes only! They are not to be used or worn for competitive play.
