Description

One of the rarest of all college football autographs

Quarterback and Captain of the 1944 Army undefeated National Championship team (1923-1950) that also featured Davis and Blanchard and who crushed their opposition by scoring 504 points to their opponents’ 35. He died in Korea in 1950 only five years after graduation while leading his men in an assault on an enemy position. ALS, one page, 8.5 x 11, Army Athletic Association, United States Military Academy letterhead, October 1. In part: “I attempted to locate the addresses of the men you desired but was not too successful. Bob St. Onge, Bob MacKinnon, and Doug Kenna are stationed here with me and you can contact them by using the same address. I hope you enjoy the Army-Cornell game. I won’t be here as I will be scouting.” In fine condition, with some light wrinkling. Scarce in any form, Lombardo is one of the rarest of all college football autographs! Pre-certified Steve Grad/PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
