Superb lot from the 1940 Blue-Gray college football game all from player Mike Bucchianeri, who ended up going pro and winning the World Championship with the 1944 Packers. 1) 10k gold watch (without band) engraved, "Presented to Mike Bucchianeri by the Blue & Gray Gradle Assoc. Montgomery, Ala., Dec 28, 1940." 2) Game ball from the game, painted with the players' names; some names display fading but the weather-beaten look adds great character to the piece, deflated. 3) North squad team-signed photograph, 19.5x8" black and white panorama, each player has signed on his image, major creases from folding, hole on bottom and some paper loss on back.
