DAC Downtown Athletic Club Journal, 43rd Annual Heisman Memorial Award Issue [Earl Campbell]

New York: Downtown Athletic Club, 1977. Good condition. Moderate cover wear. SEE PHOTO. Pages are clean and unmarked. This issue is for the 43nd Annual Heisman Memorial Trophy Award, December 1977. The award was presented to Texas Longhorn Earl Campbell, chosen as the outstanding college football player in the United States for 1977. Unlike previous DAC Heisman Award Programs, this issue maintained the suspense of who would ultimately win. The winner was not announced until a live CBS television telecast of the presentation on December 8th, 1977. This issue includes an unused ballot (No. 1400) intended to designate the voter's preference for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd choices for the Heisman, plus 6 other DAC awards for best players at various positions. Also included are several excellent articles - on Campbell and his competitors for the award, a history of the Heisman Trophy; how the Heisman candidates finished in the balloting over the years (top 14 places, 1935-1976), a photo gallery of all the previous winners and "where they are now," etc. Bound in the original full color pictorial wraps, with a photo of the Heisman Trophy on the front cover. This copy is from the collection of Ronald Cobleigh, President of the Downtown Athletic Club - sponsor of the Heisman Memorial Trophy. It doesn't have Cobleigh's name anywhere, but see our inventory for several other items that do.. First Edition. Softcover (stapled wraps). Good condition. 74pp. Great Packaging, Fast Shipping.
