KANSAS CITY CHIEFS TRIBUE TO 1ST PRO TEAM (KC BLUES 1924) FOOTBALL MINI HELMET

Description: If you need more than the quantity showing as "Available" please let me know and I can probably bump up the numbers for you. NOTES: The 1924 Kansas City Blues season was their inaugural season in the National Football League. The team finished 2–7 and finished fifteenth in the league. The Kansas City Cowboys were a National Football League team based in Kansas City, Missouri. The team was founded as the Kansas City Blues in 1924, and as the Kansas City Cowboys in 1925 and 1926.[1] The Blues competed as a traveling team, playing all of their NFL games in other cities' stadiums in their only year under that name. LeRoy Andrews acted as the team's player-coach. HistoryThe team was owned by Maurice R. Smith, Joe Brecklein and Cameron K. Reid. The Cowboys were known for dressing in cowboy attire and fans came out in great numbers to see them play. Immediately after the game, the Giants hired away head coach LeRoy Andrews and most of the Cowboys players. Maurice R. Smith then arranged to give what remained of the team to Cleveland under the condition that it would be given back if he wanted the team returned. President Joe Carr (of the NFL) agreed to the arrangement although there was never any assurance it would be honored. The Kansas City Cowboys were actually purchased by the Cleveland Bulldogs in 1927[2] and merged with that franchise. It is believed The Bulldogs were sold to the Detroit Wolverines who hired coach LeRoy Andrews[3] to coach the team. The Wolverines were then bought by the New York Giants who deactivated the team bringing the story of the Kansas City Cowboys, Cleveland Bulldogs and Detroit Wolverines to an end.[4] Coach Steve Owen played for the Kansas City Cowboys and played for the Cleveland Bulldogs. He and LeRoy Andrews fell out over their part of the purchase price for the Cowboys when they were sold to the Bulldogs and resulted in his contract being sold to the New York Giants. Owen was then hired as head coach of the Giants in 1931 and remained their coach until 1953. HELMET IS NOT AUTOGRAPHED. Custom Mini Helmet. I MAY have many other helmets from this team.

SHIPPING: Helmets are made-when-ordered. Please allow 5 BUSINESS (M-F except holidays) days for me to do a good job on your purchase and get it in the mail. Often I will pre-print a shipping label to be 1/2 step ahead so I can stick the helmet in the mail when ready instead of waiting for a label. That said....you might see in your purchase history that there has been no progress on the item moving through the mail. That is because it has not shipped yet, I just made the label early.

It also makes more free time to create new and unique helmets in other styles. DISCOUNTS: I offer bulk discounts when you purchase 6 or more identical items. Please contact me through eBay messaging. My listings are not set up for the "Make an Offer" feature. I wish I could let it go for a lower price but, you know, I have two kids in college, taxes are killing me, Riddell can't seem to fulfill orders fast enough, and my gouts is flaring up. THE SALES PITCH: The materials (shells, masks) are made in Mexico by Riddell. Completed helmets are MADE IN THE USA by a grumpy old, disabled, decorated Veteran. I have a mean German wife so nothing you can say to me can hurt my feelings. OTHER OPTIONS: If you are interested in other versions for this team....or ANY team for that matter........shoot me a not and I will refer you to some resources.EFFECTIVE APRIL 1, 2020, THE MINI HELMETS WILL NO LONGER HAVE THE "Riddell" LOGO ON THE CHINSTRAP OR NOSEPAD. THIS IS DUE TO A CHANGE IN PRODUCTION AND LIMITED AVAILABILITY OF MATERIALS.. WHY SHOULD YOU BUY A MINI HELMET? Think $50 is a lot to pay for a collectible mini helmet? Look at it this way. The going rate for mileage driven is 60 cents/mile. If you drive 90 unnecessary miles you have blown that $50 in gas and wear & tear on your car. You have nothing to show for it. In buying this rare collectible helmet you will have something for years to come. Just think how many times you just blow $50 on eating out when you could have stayed in. What do you have to show for it? A picture of that steak and potato? If you had stayed in that night in June 2020 and bought a mini helmet instead, you would still have a nice display piece of your team. How about that questionable purchase of a fitness machine. It is folded up and sitting in the corner of the garage. Or did you finally get around to selling it on Craig's List or at the yard sale? But noooooooooooo........you just HAD to get that BowFlex. Should I even bring up that Justin Bieber concert your girl made you attend upon penalty of a month long pout? Instead you could have gotten a bunch of mini helmets and had something to enjoy (and not sweat over) for years and years. Life is soooo full of regrets and I just don't want you to regret for the rest of your life that you missed out on this rare item! I really am looking out for you! Your mancave needs this helmet. You owe it to yourself for all that blood, sweat, and tears your team has put you through over the years. And think about it....how many pairs or $50 earrings has your wife bought that are just sitting there in a jewelry box, unseen and unappreciated? This is a chance for you to even the score (just a little bit). SO MAN UP AND BUY THIS HELMET! You don't agree? Take a look at her shoe closet and get back with me...... IF YOU HAVE LOST YOUR SENSE OF HUMOR, ARE A FEMINIST OR AGHORI....YOU MIGHT WANT TO STOP READING HERE. FOR THE LADIES: ?Helmets come statically charged to pick up each and every piece of dust in the house. This is something you can remind "him" of as his collection grows (just like his waistline). ?You can point out the helmets are worn by players who do not sit around all day, eat chips and watch TV. They stay in shape, work out, and bring home lots and lots of money because they love their wives and want her to have lots of shoes and jewelry. ?Helmets are ergonomically engineered so that they are easy to grip and throw across the room if necessary. ?They are cheaper than Harleys or Corvettes. ?If the "headache" excuse is not working you can tell him you saw that MyTeamSpirit just listed a bunch of new mini helmets and he should check them out. HAPPY SHOPPING! (Smile if you looked up Aghori)
