Vintage Riddell Kra-Lite Old Football TK2 Helmet- New York Jets- John Riggins
Rare New York Jets Riddell Kra-Lite helmet from 1973, as shown by the date stamping inside the helmet. This was a Riddell lamp as described below, so helmet includes vintage thin mil striping and decals! Plus this beauty has been customized by adding the iconic OPO facemask as worn by All time fan favorite with the Jets, John “The Diesel” Riggins early in his career with the Jets. We have also added authentic and vintage Dymo-tape with Riggins’ name and number just as equipment managers might have done for identification purposes. Will make a stunning display!
We offer many helmets manufactured by Riddell which were destined to be actual game used NFL helmets but before they could be shipped out to the teams, these helmets were used to make very collectible lamps for retail sale. These helmets had the suspension removed and were then attached to a wooden base with additional lamp parts attached. We have removed these helmets from the lamp and installed a new suspension and padding into them and the result is a stunning and amazing vintage helmet for with vintage authentic team decals and Riddell 2-bar BD-9 facemasks.
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.
