Description
Circa 1981 John Matuszak Game Worn & Signed Oakland Raiders Turf Shoes. A true 1970's football icon who epitomized the Oakland Raiders/Al Davis ethos, John Matuszak was a 6-8 300-pound defensive end who was the first pick of the 1973 NFL Draft, earned two Super Bowl championships with "the silver & black," and endeared himself to legions of fans through his alter ego of The Tooz. He also made ten movies and appeared in almost twenty TV shows.Converse white leather high-top turf shoes (size thirteen) feature star and chevron in gray and "72" in vintage black marker on the heels. Each shoe was signed on the ankle in silver sharpie and then signed over in black sharpie for better visibility. Vintage autographs are bold and grade 9/10 in strength. These exemplars exhibit great game wear with dirt still caked into the outersoles. Football shoes from this era are tall order. Fantastic display appeal. LOA from Heritage Auctions.
Guide Value or Estimate: $2,000 - up.

Auction Type
Signature Internet Extended Bid: These Auctions are presented via catalog and online. Bidding is taken through our website or via phone. There are two phases of bidding during this type of auction: 1) Normal bidding: Bids are taken up until 10 PM CT the night the auction closes. 2) 30 Minute Ending: On a lot-by-lot basis, starting at 10:00 PM CT, any person who has bid on the lot previously may continue to bid on that lot until there are no more bids for 30 minutes. For example, if you bid on a lot during Normal Bidding, you could participate during Extended Bidding for that lot, but not on lots you did not bid on previously. If a bid was placed at 10:15, the new end time for that lot would become 10:45. If no other bids were placed before 10:45, the lot would close. If you are the high bidder on a lot, changing your bid will not extend the bidding during the 30 Minute Ending phase (only a bid from another bidder will extend bidding). If you are the only bidder at 10 PM, you will automatically win the lot at 10:30. Important: After normal bidding ends, you must be signed-on to the Heritage site to see the bidding option on lots where you qualify for extended bidding.
