"Winning isn't everything, it's the only thing," is an oft repeated Lombardi quote. He said it, but Lombardi later stated that he meant it to mean that, "The will to win is everything." In any event, Lombardi did a lot of winning. His Green Bay Packer teams won five NFL Championships, including the first two Super Bowls. In the year of this offered signed check, Lombardi took over a bedraggled Green Bay team, and his initial season record of 7-5 earned him Coach of the Year honors for 1959. The signed check is from Kellogg Citizens National Bank of Green Bay, and it is made out to "The Stiller Company" in the amount of $493.87. The Lombardi signature, as "Vincent Lombardi" is in blue ink fountain pen and is neatly signed. Also included in the attractive display is a color photo of Lombardi, nattily dressed in a tie and jacket, perhaps looking out at the football field. No hoodies for Lombardi. The display has great visual appeal. and it is matted in Packer colors of green and gold. The Lombardi signature and accompanying display make a valuable tribute to an iconic Hall of Famer. Remember, when teams compete in the Super Bowl, they are playing for the "Vince Lombardi Trophy". Comes with PSA LOA.
