Rare Notre Dame felt banner for the 1929 National Champions football team. The same banner hangs in the Monogram Room, Joyce Hall at Notre Dame and is estimated to be one of three in existence. It measures 32" long by 22" wide, the piece contains a football with facsimile signatures including Knute Rockne. At the bottom is a cardboard placard listing the games and scores of the undefeated season. The football has some cracking and the placard has some creasing, the felt banner has some edge fraying and about a dozen small insect holes but displays very nicely. A truly rare piece for the ultimate Notre Dame fan.

The following items are from a private collection of a long-time Notre Dame football fanatic. The quality of this collection is the finest that we have seen.  It has taken a half century to procure these items and now is the first time that some of them have seen the light of day. Enjoy and help to preserve the rich history of the fighting Irish!
