Ole Miss Mississippi Rebels Riddell Kra-Lite Suspension Football Helmet Manning
PLEASE READ ENTIRE DESCRIPTION!
We have recently purchased a group of prototypes built by RIDDell for consideration of production near the end of their production of the Classic RK Series of throwback proline helmets!
For some versions of a team’s particular style, as many as 3-4 helmets were built while for others there may have been only one or two. While we do not know which teams had what numbers produced of which versions, we do know these prototypes are indeed rare and never went into production. This is one of those prototypes.
Rare Ole Miss Rebels Riddell Kra-Lite TK2 helmet, manufactured around 2006, with all you see including the Schutt OPO style facemask like Archie Manning wore in college. This beauty also has thin mil striping and decals. Notice that the heat stamping is on the rear of the helmet! This is how you know it was done at RIDDell. See photos for reference only and not included in purchase.
Like the Classic RK series, this helmet has a suspension which is identical to the original right down to the brown thread used to sew it together! The full rounded shell of the TK2 is accented by the handsome metal rivets and rubber nose pad. This beauty also includes authentic leather jaw pads and a soft cup two-toned chin strap with RIDDell trademark stamped clearly too!
Will make a stunning display, and looks like it just came off the field!
Many of our helmets are vintage from the 1960's and 1970's. All of our helmets are for display purposes only! They are not to be used or worn for competitive play. Westbrook Sportscards has been in business since 1988.
