VINTAGE 70'S SCHUTT OPO FORWARD RAKE GREEN DOT FOOTBALL HELMET FACEMASK - Gray!!

Description

This is an auction for a vintage Schutt OPO green dot, forward rake football helmet facemask.  The forward rake mask was only in production for about two years before Schutt straightened out the lines of the mask and made it more symmetrical.  Among other players, Dave Casper wore this style of mask in the "Ghost to the Post" game.
In all of my years of collecting, I have found one original of these masks.  In order to put this mask together, we had to take that mask apart.  It was a difficult decision that was
not
made quickly.  As you will see, the sacrifice was worth it.  This mask is fantastic!
This mask is a reproduction of that original mask.
The very long and painstaking process was made to make sure this mask is exact to that original.  It was then dipped in the black, liquid (PVC) coating.  So it has the same thickness and feel that the old coatings from the 70's have. This mask is
awesome!!!
Please notice that even the green dot is placed correctly on the mask, in the exact color that Schutt used 35 years ago.  Something you will only find here...  As a side note, green dot masks are made and sized for larger sized helmets.
In going through this process, I have thought long and hard about where my pricing needs to be on these masks.  Please understand that this was
not
a cheap endeavor.  This asking price is as low as I can get it so the effort would be compensatory in some form.  I have tried to find a price that is conducive so more collectors can get their hands on this elusive mask.  I hope I have succeeded.
There is no hardware included in this auction.
Shipping is included in the price of the mask.  I will ship USPS Priority.  I try to ship out within a day or two of having received payment.
Please do not hesitate to ask any and all questions you may have.  Furthermore, don't hesitate to come back and look at my other items for sale.
Thanks!!!
