 Lot 274. 1967 Super Bowl I Program: Green Bay Packers vs. Kansas City Chiefs. The Super Bowl, called the “AFL-NFL World Championship Game,” was born of the 1966 merger between the two leagues. Among the many firsts tallied that day was that of first game to be simulcast, as CBS had the rights to the NFL games, and NBC, those to the AFL. The Green Bay Packers defeated the Kansas City Chiefs, 35-10, at the Los Angeles Coliseum. Bart Starr of the Packers was the first Super Bowl MVP. Besides Starr, this historic match-up featured such future Hall of Famers as Bobby Bell, Buck Buchanan, Len Dawson, Hank Stram, Herb Adderley, Willie Davis, Forrest Gregg, Henry Jordan, Vince Lombardi and Willie Wood. This program, the holy grail of Super Bowl memorabilia, is ex-m.

 Lot 275. 1968 Super Bowl II Program: Green Bay Packers vs. Oakland Raiders. While the Green Bay Packers won over the Oakland Raiders, 33-14, on Jan. 14 at the Orange Bowl in Miami, the real history was made after the game. Following much speculation, Vince Lombardi announced his retirement after winning five championships in his nine-year career with the Packers. It also turned out to be the last game played by Green Bay’s Max McGee and Don Chandler. Willie Davis, Forrest Gregg, Henry Jordan, Lombardi, Bart Starr (MVP for the second year in a row), Willie Wood, Fred Biletnikoff, Willie Brown, and Jim Otto all went onto the Hall of Fame.

 Lot 276. 1969 Super Bowl III Program: Baltimore Colts vs. New York Jets. While making an appearance at the Miami Touchdown Club, Joe Namath was confronted by a rowdy Colts’ fan, and he boldly issued what has come to be known as “The Guarantee.” Namath predicted “We’re (Jets) gonna win the game. I guarantee it.” The Jets certainly weren’t favored. After all, the AFL was still considered an inferior league. But win they did, 16-7, to mark the first Super Bowl won by an AFL team. Namath completed 17 out of 28 passes for 206 yards and was named the Super Bowl’s MVP. The game was played at the Orange Bowl in Miami. In addition to Namath, future Hall of Famers Don Maynard, Don Shula, Weeb Ewbank, Johnny Unitas, Chuck Noll and John Mackey are pictured in the program. Ex-m.

 Lot 278. Rare 1971 Super Bowl V Program: Baltimore Colts vs. Dallas Cowboys. The Cowboys won, 16-13, at the Orange Bowl in Miami in the first Super Bowl played on artificial turf. Sometimes called the “Blunder Bowl” for its poor play, this game set some Super Bowl records that just make you wince. The Colts’ seven turnovers are the most ever to be committed by a winning team in the Super Bowl, and together, the teams committed eleven turnovers, another record. The Cowboys set a record of 10 Super Bowl penalties. Bubba Smith actually refuses to wear his Super Bowl V ring because of the “sloppy play.” Dallas linebacker Chuck Howley became the only member of a losing team to be named the Super Bowl MVP. Despite this day, Unitas, Hendricks, Mackey, Landry, Staubach, Lilly, Renfro, Ditka and Wright all became Hall of Fame members. As for the program, rumor has it that one of the trucks carrying programs to the game crashed and burned on its way to Miami, drastically limiting the number that were available. Luckily, we have one for you and in ex-m to nm condition!
