Take a step back in time, to a glorious era in sports posters, and a glorious era in Chicago Bears football! This vintage classic takes you back to 1982, when the Bears were beginning their ascent to Super Bowl glory just a few years later, and features the man who prowled the defensive zone at old Soldier Field with all-pro brilliance for a generation, Gary Fencik! The local-boy-made-good reached his peak in the early 1980s, when he was a back-to-back Pro Bowl selection in 1980 and 1981, and reached first-team All-Pro Defensive Back status after the 1981 season; and he remained a cornerstone of the legendary defensive core that backstopped the Bears to the Super Bowl XX championship in January 1986. As with all posters in the "White Border" Sports Illustrated design that spanned the years 1978-1987, this one features the best of Sports Illustrated photography, the iconic white-bordered layout, and a facsimile signature from the player himself as part of the design!

This particular poster was obtained as part of our "Toledo Collection", obtained from a collector in Ohio who preserved his large collection of old 1980s Sports Illustrated posters flat, never displayed on the wall, and virtually untouched since purchasing them out of store racks back in the day. This one displays as well as it would have back in the 1980s, with just some minor typical imperfections consistent with any poster purchased at that time. The picture you see here is the actual poster you will receive! Don't miss your chance at this one, Bears fans - only one available.
