A St. Louis Cardinals original Riddell TK Kra-Lite II from 1971. The helmet is original and comes complete with the original leather jaw pads and the original Riddell BD-9 two bar facemask. The facemask is dated from 1969. The multi-part Cardinals logos are original to the helmet, as used by the Cardinals in 1970 and 1971. They remain in nice condition, are properly positioned, and adhered to the helmet very well with no lifting. The right jawpad has some damage with ripping near one of the snaps. Dried adhesive remains on the front of the helmet which held a Riddell optional foam nose bumper pad as used by some NFL teams in the early 70s. No player identifiers are inside of the helmet. A LOA from Hunt Auctions is included with the helmet.
