Two pics that made me smile were the last TD as a Skins pic and the Posse poster pic.
I had never seen the last TD pic before. Great shot of a notable reception.
I've seen The Posse poster pic online before. In fact I used it as a sig pic for a while years ago however I don't believe I've ever seen the two "cowboys" tied up in the lower right corner before. That's great.
At the same time, it's a blessing you had that opportunity in the first place!I know we got lots of young Redskins fans that would love to experience how you (and others) felt during those winning years; it's an incredible feeling.
This is an amazing thread from many perspectives, thank you! To the kids, hopefully the Redskins of the near future will provide you with something to be proud of for a lifetime. HTTR!
Where are the HOF pics? Hell, I'm surprised you don't have his HOF yellow jacket or his actual HOF head statue! I'm guessing they're on your list of things to acquire
What an awesome collection jollyroger.
I have wood right now.
“I just wanted to say to the fans … in D.C. and across the nation, they’ve been great for us, cheering us on. At away games they show up in the masses and at home they really made it feel like a home-field advantage. We said this when I was in college, ‘We got a chance to sit at the dinner table and experience success and it was a good meal. But now we want to go back to get dessert.’ We’ll be ready to get dessert next year.”
Robert Griffin’s last words at the press conference.
Do they still sell the Posse posters? I'd love to have a poster of that in color to add to my Redskin room. As soon as we get the room in order, I'll try and post pictures. It's a Redskins/sports room. We just moved into the house 3 months ago and we're trying to finish getting settled in.
Redskins 2013 Opponents:
Home- Dallas, NY Giants, Philadelphia, Detroit, Chicago, San Francisco, Kansas City, San Diego
Away- Dallas, NY Giants, Philadelphia, Green Bay, Minnesota, Atlanta, Denver, Oakland
Every once in a while you see one come up on ebay. There is a 5x7 version of the poster right now for sale on ebay for $9.99. I don't know if you could get that one and have it blown up to poster size at a photo shop, but I imagine that you could at leats have it made into 16x20 to frame and display. I don't know if you would run into any copyright issues, since they don't make them any more, but you could check it out. The auction number is 310393764081.

Unfortunately, I don't have any original wire photos of the Hall Ceremonies. I wish that I did. I didn't just want to paste and copy HOF pics from the internet for the thread. If you know how I could get the yellow jacket or the bust (legally) just let me know!!! LOL![]()
Awesome thread! Those pics bring back memories of growing up watching him play. I had that Posse poster back in the day but have no clue what happened to it...
Thank you for sharing! This is great, historic stuff.
Hopefully Art doesn't re-up his restraining order against you! Just kidding.
I have had a couple requests to post more pictures of memorabilia, so I will continue to post items as I get a chance to. Tonight I am focusing on non-authentic jerseys, and tee shirts. The first jersey is a Sand Knit retail jersey. Notice that the font on this is exactly the same as the 1990 authentic. This is because they were both manufactured at the same factory. They probably used the same screens to print both of them, the only difference being the material that they are printed on. I have put the two side by side and they are the same size and font.

MacGreggor retail jersey. This one is very different than the Sand Knit with "Redskins" above the numbers and the font is slightl different and smaller.
Champion Retail jersey which is not in great condition. This font is completely different since the manufacturers didn't worry about being accurate about the font.
Art Monk tee shirt made by Salem
