Little "ol time" Football Player

I guess "ol time" in this instance means before they added the face cage to the helmet. Like when I was young. Was at the diner the other day drinkin coffee and whittlin, when the conversations all turned to football. Instead of a Santa being whittled, this little football player came out of the wood. Maybe it was Buckeye wood! I got him sittin on a penny so you can see howsmall he is.

He certainly has the look of "I've been kicked around" lol

I remember those helmets. Almost the same shape as leather flight hats.
