49er running back John Henry Johnson passed away this last weekend. In 2000 National Sports Distributors brought together all the existing 49er players that were in the Pro Football Hall of Fame to sign 500 helmets. It was an exceptional day with all the guys together, laughing and teasing each other with respect. Shortly thereafter, Leo Nomelini passed away and just recently Joe Perry passed away. Now John Henry Johnson joins them. Back in 2000 John Henry Johnson looked like he could still play. His body was lean, but his mind had started to go, but his autograph was beautiful and consistent. He also had a big smile several times during the day. He will be missed.

We have recently put out about 6 of these special 10 way 49er HOF signed helmets. Each athlete also signed the helmet with their year of induction into the Hall of Fame. This is a great item. Please contact National Sports Distributors about the cost and availability.
