In a complete display of domination the Giamts manhandled the helpless Bears in to the tune of 47-7 during the '56 title game. Fullback Mel Triplett smashed 17 yards for a TD early in the game on an icy field before a big crowd, then Ben Agajanian added a brace of field goals for a 13-0 lead. It was 34-7 at halftime as Alex Webster crashed over for a pair of touchdowns from inside the 5-yard line. Charlie Conerly’s aerials brought nothing but more woe to the Bears in the second half, with Kyle Rote snaring a 9-yard TD throw and Frank Gifford a 14-yarder to close out the scoring. Offered is the gorgeous NRMT 10-karat gold prize from that very young time in franchise history. This New York Giants Championship ring by Dieges & Clust owns a rectangular blue stone at top with a dazzling cubic zirconium at center, surrounded by raised text that reads, “NY Giants World Champions” along with the score. Right shank displays, “NFL, 56”, left shank displays, New York skyline design with football player behind and the number, “19” below. Sample is a size 11.5, NR-MT.
