Game Used Antique Riddell chinstrap. This chinstrap was worn, used, and signed by Redskins quarterback Eddie LeBaron. As you may know, LeBaron was the first quarterback of the Inaugural Dallas Cowboys team in 1960. LeBaron was a 4X ProBowl player.
This is a leather chinstrap that was used in the 1956 season by LeBaron and was part of a collection of Antique Game Used Signed Chinstraps. The original owner would ask players for their chinstrap following a game. His collection spanned from 1955 though the 1961 seasons. Not only is this chinstrap original and signed by a Superstar quarterback - it is in phenominal condition - alsmost new, with the only sign of wear being the tooth indentations from where LeBaron adjusted the chinstrap buckle on the one strap. As you know, typically these chinstraps are stiff, torn, smelly, and nasty from this time period. We have not modified or changed the chinstrap in any manner including cleaning or treating it with any cleaners or conditioners.
