Jack
Ham new!
$139
Jack
Ham was a consensus All-America at Penn State and the 34th player
taken in the 1971 National Football League Draft. His sensational
rookie training camp earned him a starting left linebacker spot
for the Pittsburgh Steelers in his first regular season game,
a spot he never relinquished until his retirement after the 1982
season. Born in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, Ham had the reputation
as a big-play defender and one of the finest outside linebackers
in the game. Blessed with speed, quickness, intelligence and exceptional
mobility, Ham had the uncanny ability to diagnose plays and to
be in the right defensive position at all times. Along with defensive
tackle Joe Greene and defensive end L. C. Greenwood, Ham was a
key element in an exceptionally strong left side of the Pittsburgh
defense during the team's Super Bowl years, playing Super Bowls
IX, X, and XIII.. Named to eight straight Pro Bowls, the Football
News named him the Defensive Player of the Year In 1975. This
Hall of Famer (Class of 1988) hand- signed this classic photograph.

RB
Franco Harris began his pro football career as the Pittsburgh
Steelers' No.1 pick in the 1972 NFL Draft. For 12 seasons, the
6-2, 230-pounder from Penn State was a big-yardage running back,
rushing for 1,000 yards or more in eight seasons (becoming only
the 4th rookie to do so during his first season). His career rushing
total (12,120 yards) and combined net yardage figure (14,622)
both ranked as the third highest marks in pro football history
at the time of his retirement. Franco was selected to nine Pro
Bowls, played in four Super Bowls, and was named the Super Bowl
IX MVP. But arguable his most memorable moment was the "Immaculate
Reception" pass he caught from Terry Bradshaw to give
the Steelers their first-ever playoff win, a 13-7 victory over
the Oakland Raiders. This framed and matted limited edition photo
of Franco heading for the endzone after that amazing reception
is hand-signed by Franco and quality framed in thick black wood,
UV-protective glass and classic double-matting. A great gift for
any Steelers fan. [why

Franco
Harris new!
Immaculate Reception w/ Plaque
$229
In
this famous 1972 AFC Play-off game, the Steelers trailed 7-6 to
the Oakland Raiders late in the game. The Steelers took over the
ball on their own 25 with 1:13 to play. Now at their own 40-yard
line, quarterback Terry Bradshaw faced a forth-and-10 with only
20 seconds remaining. Bradshaw dropped back to pass but was under
heavy pressure from DE Tony Cline. The play was designed to go
to WR Barry Pearson but he was covered. Over the middle of the
field, running back Frenchie Fuqua appeared to break open at the
Oakland 35-yard line. Bradshaw threw a pass over the middle of
the field and DB Jack Tatum, of the Raiders, administered a punishing
hit on Fuqua just as the ball arrived. The ball deflected upwards
and a trailing Franco Harris reached down to snatch the ball out
of the air at shoe top level. He then raced down the sideline
to score the winning touchdown and turning a broken play into
one of the most memorable moments in NFL history, captured in
this amazing collectible. The same photo as above,
this handsome presentation is Sports Gallery Quality
Framed in thick black wood, UV-protective glass (very
important for signature protection!), classic Steelers double
matting and descriptive plaque. A classy collectible that would

Did
you know?
Under NFL rules at the time - later changed in 1978
- an offensive player could not deflect a ball to
a teammate. The ball had to be touched by a defender.
The on-field referee Fred Swearingen and his crew
ruled that Tatum had, in fact, touched the ball, thus
making this a legal catch. NFL official Art McNally,
in the press box, watched television replays of the
play and conferred with the officials on the field
before ruling the call on the field was correct. This
marked the first time in NFL history where instant
replay was used to determine if a call on the field
was correct.
Since
being selected out of NC State by the St. Louis Rams in the 1996
NFL draft, Torry Holt has quietly become one of the best receivers
in the game today. In his rookie season, Holt posted 53 receptions,
788 receiving yards and 6 touchdowns and helped the Rams to a
Super Bowl Championship. With phenomenal hands and awareness,
Holt ranks third in both receptions and receiving yards in Rams
history history after just six seasons. Torry became first player
in NFL history with five consecutive 1,300-yard receiving seasons.
He was the fifth-fastest in NFL history to gain at least 5,000
receiving yards (63 games) and the fourth-fastest to make 500
receptions (94 games). In 2004, Torry earned his fourth Pro Bowl
invitation after tying for the NFC lead with 94 receptions for
1,372 yards and 10 touchdowns. A great, great talent, Torry's
reputation will continue to grow in the coming years. Get this

Vincent Edward "Bo" Jackson (born November 30, 1962 in Bessemer, Alabama) is a former multi-sport professional in both football and baseball. In football, Jackson played running back for the Los Angeles Raiders. In baseball, Jackson played left field and designated hitter for the Kansas City Royals, the Chicago White Sox, and the California Angels. Jackson was the first athlete to be named an All-Star in two major sports. Before his professional career, he earned the 1985 Heisman Trophy. In 1989 and 1990, Jackson's name became known beyond just sports fans through the "Bo Knows" advertising campaign, a series of advertisements by Nike promoting a cross-training athletic shoe named for Jackson. In June 1982, Jackson was selected by the New York Yankees, but he instead chose to attend Auburn University on a football scholarship. Jackson qualified for the 60-yard dash in his freshman and sophomore year and considered joining the USA Olympic team, but sprinting would not gain him the financial security of the MLB or NFL, nor would he have sufficient time to train, given his other commitments. Jackson was declared ineligible to play in the 1986 baseball season when he had a physical examination for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Jackson was drafted by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as the first pick of the 1986 NFL Draft, but he opted to play baseball for the Kansas City Royals instead. He began to show his true potential in 1989, when he was voted to start for the American League All-Star team, and was named the game's MVP for his play on both offense and defense. Then Oakland Raiders selected Jackson in the football draft. Owner Al Davis supported Jackson and his baseball career, allowing him to only play part-time until the baseball season was done. Get this

Did
you know?
Johnson is well known for his on-field antics and
celebrations, most of which come after he scores a
touchdown. And most of which have earned him fines
from the NFL. In fact, so frequent are his fines that
in one game Johnson held up a sign saying "Dear
NFL;: Please don't fine me again!!!!!" The sign
earned Johnson a fine of $10,000.

Howie
Long new!
$199
Howie
Long was the second-round pick of the Oakland Raiders in the 1981
NFL Draft. A four-year letterman at Villanova, Long was the MVP
in the 1980 Blue-Gray Game. During his stellar career with the
Raiders he was selected to eight Pro Bowls. Fast, strong, and
explosive off the ball, he was just the second Raider defensive
lineman to make a Pro Bowl. A first- or second-team All-Pro choice
in 1983, 1984, 1985, 1986, and 1989, he was also named All-AFC
four times. During his 13-year career, Long, a member of the NFLs
All-Decade team of the 1980s, recorded 84 career sacks, not including
7.5 sacks in 1981 before the sack was an official NFL statistic.
A classic Raider, Howie was elected to the Pro Football Hall of
Fame in 2000. This awesome hand-signed action photo is Sports

First Sack 16x20 (signed by Long & Joe Montana)
Howie
Long's first sack of his Hall of Fame career couldn't have been
any more memorable. Two legendary players who would both join
the Pro Football Hall of Fame as part of the Class of 2000, first
met on the playing field. A meeting Joe Montana would just as
soon forget. Howie recorded his first of 84 career sacks (plus
7.5 sacks in 1981 before the sack was an official NFL statistic)
against the 49ers and Joe Montana. Howie would go on to be an
eight-time Pro Bowl player with the Raiders. Joe, of course, would
go on to win nine divisional titles and four Super Bowls with
the 49ers. But on this play, Howie and the Raiders, were the victors
over their cross-bay rivals. Nice way to start a career... We
have two versions of this this classic 16x20 b&w photograph.
One is hand-signed by Howie only and the other is signed by BOTH
Long and Joe Montana. Both are Sports Gallery Quality
Framed in thick black wood, UV-protective glass (very

Ronnie
Lott, an All-American from Southern California, was the San Francisco
49ers first round draft pick in the '81 NFL Draft. In his
first NFL season, Lott led a young secondary that helped the 49ers
to win Super Bowl XVI. During his career, the versatile defensive
back earned 10 Pro Bowl invitations at three different positions
cornerback, free safety, and strong safety. Lott recorded
63 career interceptions and twice led the league. In his ten seasons
with the 49ers, San Francisco won eight NFC Western Division titles
and four Super Bowls. A member of the NFLs 75th Anniversary
Team and the Pro Football Hall of Fame, Lott is one of the NFL's
All-Time Greats. During
Ronnie's recent Signing

some great Niner photos of himself including this one where he's
takin' it to the Lambs...er Rams. Quality framed in thick black

Hes like a middle linebacker
playing safety, Hall of Fame coach Tom Landry once
remarked. Hes devastating.
He may dominate the secondary better than anyone Ive seen.
Apparently the NFL agreed naming Lott to the NFLs 75th Anniversary
Team and inducting him into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. In
his ten seasons with the 49ers, San Francisco won eight NFC Western
Division titles and four Super Bowls. Hard to do much better than
that. During
Ronnie's recent Signing
with Sports Gallery he signed some great Niner photos
of himself including this one where he's returning an INT for
a touchdown against the arch rival Rams. Just a great photo if
you're a longtime Niners fan. Quality framed in thick black wood,

Football
Legend Ronnie
Lott Visits Sports
Gallery!
Known
for his hard-hitting style, Lott was used at both left and right
cornerback positions and as a free and strong safety during his
14-year career. The versatile defensive back earned 10 Pro Bowl
invitations at three different positions cornerback, free
safety, and strong safety. It was, however, at free safety, where
he had the freedom to cover the whole field, that he may have
been most effective. It has been said that Lott had the uncanny
ability of being able to sense the direction a play was about
to take and then doing whatever it took to disrupt it. Hes
like a middle linebacker playing safety, Hall of
Fame coach Tom Landry once remarked. Hes
devastating." Named All-Pro eight times, All-NFC six
times, and All-AFC once, Lott was also named to the NFLs
75th Anniversary Team. During Ronnie's recent Signing
with Sports Gallery he signed this great "Goal
Line Stand" photograph of himself leaping over a pile of
Niner teammates, helmet askew on his head. Just
a great shot and quality framed in thick black wood, UV-protective

Ronnie
Lott was an intense football player. Legendary Cowboys Coach Tom
Landry said he "was like a middle
linebacker playing safety." This awesome photograph
on Lott captures that intensity perfectly. Lined up defensively,
Ronnie stares down his opponents on offense. Just a great shot
of a San Francisco 49er All-Time Great. In fact the Niners have
retired his famous #42, prominent in this photo. During Ronnie's
recent Signing

Ronnie
Lot once had part of his little finger amputated during
a game after getting it caught in a player's face
mask.
After
Ronnie Lott's Hall of Fame career with the San Francisco 49ers,
he spent a season with the Raider Nation, signing as a free
agent in 1991. And all he did in the Silver and Black was lead
the League in interceptions! An amazing defensive player, Ronnie
Lott was the portrait of uncompromising tenacity. He slammed
into runners, disrupted pass patterns, and separated ball carriers
from footballs - in other words, the perfect Raider. No opponent
who met Lott on a football field forgot the introduction. Asked
once to describe the style with which he delivered a defensive
blow, he said simply, "It comes from your toes, it comes
from your soul, it comes from all that you are." And how's

Before
his Hall of Fame professional career, Ronnie Lott played his college
ball at the University of Southern California. During his years
of play as a safety at USC (1977-1980), he helped the team to
a share of the 1978 national championship and played in the 1979

captain in 1980. He was inducted into the College Football Hall
of Fame in 2002 and was also a 1995 inductee to the USC Athletic
Hall of Fame. And, of course, he experienced similar success in
the NFL where he won four Super Bowls with the San Francisco 49ers,
was an eight-time All-Pro, was named to the NFLs 75th Anniversary
Team, and was elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame (class

Eli
Manningnew! Super
Bowl XLII MVP 16x20 and 8x10
New
York Giants co-owner John Mara publicly questioned QB Eli Manning's
ability to lead the his Giants in 2007, both now and in the
future.
Boy, did Eli make him eat those words...removing
all doubt when he was named the MVP of Super Bowl XLII. On that
day in February, 2008, all Manning did was lead the Giants to
an upset victory over the then-undefeated New England Patriots.
In the games most memorable play, Manning
connected with David Tyree,avoiding several near-sacks
in the process. Tyree actually caught the ball by trapping it
on his helmet. Shortly after, Plaxico Burress caught a short
touchdown pass with just thirty seconds remaining sealing the
greatest upset victory in Super Bowl history. Manning became
only the second quarterback in NFL history to throw two go-ahead
fourth quarter touchdowns in a Super Bowl (Joe
Montana being the first).Not only that but, he and
his brother Peyton
are the only brother combination to play at quarterback in the
Super Bowl and the only set of brothers to win Super Bowl MVP,
doing so in successive years. Move over Peyton, a new Manning
is getting the headlines. Get this terrific hand-signed action
shot from Super Bowl XLL. Sports

Framed in thick black wood, UV-protective glass and
NY Giants suede double matting, this timeless piece of Sports
Art is available both in 8x10 and 16x20 photographs. A great
gift for any Giants fan.
In
2005, NY Giants QB Eli Manning has officially stepped out of the
large shadow cast by his older brother. Born Elisha Nelson Manning,
Eli is the son of former New Orleans Saints quarterback Archie
Manning and younger brother of current Indianapolis Colts quarterback
Peyton
Manning. More importantly, Eli is a heck of good quarterback.
After playing his college football at the University of Mississippi,
Eli was considered a top prospect prior to the 2004 NFL Draft.
But he also became the target of criticism for stating that he
would not play for the San Diego Chargers, who owned the first
pick in the draft. Despite his stated intention not to play for
them, the Chargers drafted Manning with the first overall pick
in the draft but then traded him to the Giants for QB Philip Rivers
and draft picks. Boy have things worked out for the Eli and the
Giants! Manning began 2004 as the backup QB but was named the
starter by midseason. In 2005, Manning has shown his true potential
with stellar play and amazing leadership for a 2nd-year player.
He has the Giants leading their Division and looking like a real
Super Bowl contender. A great young talent with a bright, bright
future, Eli collectibles are sure to go up in value in the coming
years. Get this terrific hand-signed action shot, Quality
Framed by Sports Gallery, before it goes up in value.

When
he left the University of Tennessee, Peyton Manning held 42 NCAA,
SEC and Tennessee records, including 33 Tennessee single game,
season and career records. The 1998 #1 pick of the Indianapolis
Colts, Manning hasn't missed a beat in the Pros. A seven-time
Pro Bowler and two-time NFL MVP, Petyon has produced totals in
his NFL career that rank among the best NFL history...actually
many are THE best. Individual
records that Manning holds include seasons with 4,000+ yards (7)
and consecutive seasons of 4,000+ yards (6 from 1999-2004).
During the 2004 season Manning broke several single season passing
records, including touchdown passes with 49 (surpassing Dan
Marino's total of 48) and season passing rating with
121.1 (shattering Steve
Young's record of 112.8). And, of course, on February
4, 2007 Peyton led the Colts to a 29-17 victory over the Chicago
Bears in Super Bowl XLI, being voted MVP of the game.

In 2004, Peyton Manning was nothing short of amazing. His phenomenal
season earned him his second successive Associated Press NFL Most
Valuable Player Award, joining the likes of Joe

awards. Manning threw for 49 touchdowns, surpassing Dan
Marino's 20-year-old NFL record and he shattered Young's
season passer rating record with a 121.1 mark. " He's as
close to a football god as there is right now," Chicago Bears
