Riddell 'Slate Collection' Signed Mini Football Helmet (Autograph Smudged)
This item is a Riddell brand 'Mini Helmet' from the 'Slate Collection,' featuring a matte dark grey or slate-colored finish. The helmet is a scaled-down reproduction of a standard American football helmet, constructed from molded plastic with a metallic gold-colored facemask and gold-tone decorative stripes along the crown. It includes realistic interior padding details and a white chin strap. On the upper left side of the helmet shell, there is a signature in silver or white paint pen. As noted in the provided context, the autograph is significantly smudged, particularly on the left side of the script, which obscures the legibility of the signature and impacts the overall aesthetic and market value. The item remains housed in its original clear plastic blister packaging (clamshell) with a cardboard base featuring the NFL shield and Riddell branding. The packaging appears mostly intact with a 'Slate Collection' sticker on the front, though there is some light scuffing on the plastic. The autograph likely belongs to a professional football player ('Boss'), but the smudging prevents definitive identification through visual inspection alone without matching to a known player signature style. The modern manufacturing and 'Slate' style suggest an production era from the mid-to-late 2010s to the early 2020s. The overall quality is characteristic of officially licensed NFL memorabilia collectibles.
