Autographed Bob Lilly Riddell Speed Dallas Cowboys Mini Helmet

This item is a Riddell Speed model mini football helmet featuring the iconic Dallas Cowboys branding. The helmet is constructed of molded silver plastic with a high-gloss finish, accented by the team's signature blue and white star logo on the side and a coordinating stripe decal running across the top. It features a grey plastic facemask and internal padding details consistent with mini-scale replicas. A significant valuation feature is the hand-signed autograph on the shell by Hall of Famer Bob Lilly, inscribed with 'Bob Lilly' and 'HOF 80' in bold black permanent marker. The signature appears clear and well-placed. The helmet is housed in its original clear plastic retail display case, which includes a 'SPEED' decal and a 'Riddell' branded base with a nameplate identifying 'BOB LILLY'. The condition is viewed as excellent, appearing to be in new-old-stock condition with no visible scuffs or fading to the silver paint. A green holographic NFL authentication sticker is visible on the shell, adding a layer of provenance to the collectible. This item likely dates from the late 20th to early 21st century given the 'Speed' helmet design.
