Among his many accomplishments, Pollard was the first African American head coach in the NFL and was one of the first two African American players in the NFL in 1920. The medal shows two players in relief and says "Touchdown Club of America Inc./Fritz Pollard/Director." The medal is in EX condition and comes with a photocopy of a picture of Pollard with this medal. There is no ribbon.
