    This helmet is at an antique store near me, but the owner who has the key to the cabinet was not in today and couldn’t see the numbers on the back of the helmet.

    Looks like a Green but that also looks like an 8 below it.

    Looking up thye players to wear 8 for Pittsburgh I'm thinking this looks like Melvin Ingram?

    Looks like Ingram was the one. Just looks like he squished it all together on the helmet.

    I think its Scobee. It looks like how he signed on Jags helmets only with the number 10.

    Plax? His signature on Steelers stuff has some similarities.

    Plax’s sigs have a B. I see no B on this signature

    could be Kenny - 8, maybe after they signed Russ?? Lol

    So what's the asking price for an LC Greenwood signed antique helmet?

    Well, there is a small group of memorabilia. 1) This helmet, 2) Another old signed Rams helmet whos signature I also cannot read, 3) A Joe Montana signed football, and a 4) baseball signed by Micky Mantle.

    All for a whopping $1500.00

    Im hesitant to think it’s real and not too good to be true. Gonna be looking into it and if I can authenticate them, I’ll buy and flip if still in house.

    What the hell? Greenwood Mantle and Montana for $1500? What's the catch?!

    I checked on ebay. A signed Greenwood helmet is going for $270-$300.

    Pretty sure it's Terry's cousin, Larry Bradshaw.
