Trophy celebrating the NFL's 75th Anniversary All-Time team was awarded to the Cleveland Browns in recognition of their three players named - Jim Brown, Otto Graham, and Marion Motley. Octagonal wood base measures 8x8x3.5" and green stone highlights the trophy, starting with a relief of six (6) players wearing uniforms from various periods in football history, set on the top stone. Another piece is cut to match the wood base and sits atop, and three more stone plates grace the front; the center bears the NFL's 75th Anniversary Logo, the left has important moments in Cleveland Browns' history along with the names of the three honorees, and the right side bears the simple orange Browns helmet above the team name. Bottom of base has Zweigle maker's sticker, award weighs 9 pounds and remains in NM condition. Each player named to that all-time team received a trophy in this style, as did the teams from which they were connected, and this was the one issued to the Browns. Selected by a panel in 1994, only 50 players were named to the team, making this trophy a rarity in its own right; team issues, however, are even more difficult to come by and this is quite the prize celebrating the very best players to leave their mark on the gridiron.
