1935 Chicago Bears Team Signed Contract
<B>1935 Chicago Bears Team Signed Contract.</B></I> Early gridiron treasure derives from the files of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, and was inked to secure the services of this early NFL powerhouse "...for use in connection with one short subject film ..." Listed in the typed body copy, and then appearing in autograph form on the closing pages, are the names of twenty-three members of the Bears squad, most notably Hall of Famers Red Grange, George Halas (two signatures), Link Lyman and Bill Hewitt, along with stars Beattie Feathers and Bernie Masterson. All autographs rate an impressive 9/10, and the pages remain in splendid condition with torn punch holes at top and storage folds, neither of which cause any concern. Team sheets from pre-war NFL teams are exceptionally tough, and this rates high among that small supply. A rare opportunity for the advanced football autograph collector. <I>LOA from PSA/DNA.
