Description: "The Super Bowl - Sports Greatest Championship" - by Austin Murphy - 1st EDITION 1st PRINT Hardcover w/Dustjacket (oversized 9" x 11-1/2") - Published in 1998 by Sports Illustrated - 176 pages (numerous great color photos) – the book is in EXCELLENT condition; the DJ is very good plus. In 1966 the NFL and AFL agreed to a four-year phased merger, after which they would be called the National and American Conferences of the NFL. It was then that Lamar Hunt, multi-millionaire founder of the AFL and owner of the Kansas City Chiefs, proposed the novel idea that the two leagues (and later two conferences) begin playing a series of post-season championship games -- a sort of World Series of Pro Football. When asked what these games should be called, Lamar Hunt had the answer: the Super Bowl. He made the suggestion half in jest, but in the years to come the Super Bowl has become perhaps the greatest spectacle in sport. This great book tells the story of the Super Bowl focusing on the players with descriptive text, statistics, and great photography. There is some minor edge wear on the DJ, but this book is still in very nice condition. No collection of Terry Bradshaw items or Super Bowl books is complete without this one. Check out the scan for the great photo of Terry Bradshaw on the cover. You can try to buy this book for less money from one of those eBay booksellers with hundreds, if not thousands of negatives (you know the ones I refer to) and be lucky if the book is delivered to you in the stated condition (if you even get it at all), or you can buy it from me and be assured of a prompt delivery and of receiving an item true to the condition indicated. You won't be disappointed. Don't get left out; this book is long out of print! All previous buyers of my football books have been completely satisfied.
