Vintage Original Riddell 1971 Detroit Lions Kra-Lite Football Helmet Lamp
Vintage Original Riddell 1971 Detroit Lions Kra-Lite Football Helmet Lamp
Vintage and original Detroit Lions Riddell Kra-Lite helmet lamp from 1971 as shown by the “Kra-Lite” stamped into the rear of the helmet and the date stamp inside the helmet and on the facemask.
Please see photos for nice condition for this 51 year old lamp. This is one of the nicest lamps we have ever had. This one has the extra special turf added to the base as well!
Riddell helmet lamps manufactured between 1969 and 1973 used actual game helmets which were made for the NFL teams. These lamps were available by mail order through The Sears Wishbook.
When ordered, RIDDell simply removed the suspension padding from the helmet and replaced the rivets before assembling the helmet into a lamp to ship out.
This helmet lamp works just fine. Please note however, this helmet lamp is nearly 50 years old and we will not guarantee safety in operation.
This beautiful piece of Americana came to us exactly as you see, and includes vintage team issued striping, and decals applied by Riddell.
The paint is also vintage and original from the manufacturer. Will make a stunning display, and the helmet looks like it is ready to take the field!
All of our helmets are for display purposes only! They are not to be used or worn for competitive play.
