Walter Payton 'Sweetness' Autographed Wheaties Box Framed Display

This is a custom-framed sports memorabilia display honoring NFL legend Walter Payton of the Chicago Bears. The piece is set in a black stepped wooden or composite frame behind protective glass. The centerpiece is a 1980s-era Wheaties box flat featuring Walter Payton, which appears to bear a hand-signed autograph in the upper left corner. Surrounding this are two action photographs showing Payton in his iconic number 34 jersey. The matting is a high-quality double mat in navy blue and orange (Chicago Bears colors), with decorative 'v-groove' channeling. To the right, the nickname 'Sweetness' is professionally custom-cut into the matting in orange lettering. A gold-toned metal identification plaque on the left reads 'WALTER PAYTON "SWEETNESS"' and lists his career achievement as the NFL's 2nd All Time Leading Rusher with 16,726 yards. The framing craftsmanship appears excellent with precise corners and multi-window alignment. Condition looks very good with no visible fading of the Wheaties orange or the ink, and the frame shows minimal scuffing. This display likely dates from the late 1990s to early 2010s based on the archival framing style and the inclusion of his final career rushing yardage statistics.
