THE OLDEST FULL-SIZED SPORTS POSTER SERIES EVER PUBLISHED!

A classic piece of Americana, from a classic era in Atlanta sports history! This was Falcons style, circa 1966 - lovable expansion losers of the NFL, who lost their first nine regular-season games, but then managed to win three of the next four to bring optimism to the future. From the era of Randy Johnson, Junior Coffey, Ernie Wheelwright, Jerry Richardson, Marion Rushing, Lee Calland, Bob Riggle, and all the rest of that scrappy bunch. A rare poster from the very first season of Falcons football, and part of the earliest full-sized (two-feet-by-three-feet) sports poster series ever published! All NFL and AFL teams of the era were published in this series, which features bold, colorful artwork from Dave Boss, and a simple black-and-white team title along the bottom - great 1960s style that will bring back a flood of memories. These posters pre-date the more well-known NFL Collectors Series (sold through Sports Illustrated) by a couple of years, and are much more difficult to find! For serious collectors only - grab it now if you need it.
