Lou Groza Signed Mini Helmet Browns “The Toe” – COA JSA

Description

Presented is a Cleveland Browns mini-helmet autographed by Lou Groza. He signed it in black felt tip (“6” faded) with the inscription, “The Toe.”

Nicknamed “the Toe”, Lou Groza was an American professional football offensive tackle and placekicker while playing his entire career for the Cleveland Browns in the All-America Football Conference (AAFC) and National Football League (NFL). Groza was professional football’s career kicking and points leader when he retired after the 1967 season. He played in 21 seasons for the Browns, helping the team to win eight league championships in that span. Groza’s accuracy and strength as a kicker influenced the development of place-kicking as a specialty; he could kick field goals from beyond 50 yards (46 m) at a time when attempts from that distance were a rarity. He set numerous records for distance and number of field goals kicked during his career.
