LOOKING BACK
By John Turney
Really, the last set of NFL posters came from a Tennessee company called DAMAC. They used Chuck Ren as the artist for the vast majority of their posters. They kind of rolled out over a several year period, with the more popular teams getting a second and even third poster. In all, they released posters from 1977 through 1983.
Here is the initial set with some of the second versions:
Here are some of the second editions or homages by
Dan Tearle to the Chuch Ren work.

Hmm. Someone added Dorsett's name to his jersey on that poster (it's not there on the original). And Zorn's image is based on a Staubach photo from the 1978 season.

ReplyDeleteI have the 1983 Dallas Cowboys poster in mint unhung condition. But its printed in the UK and with a UK address too. But 100% authentic. Must have some value?
ReplyDeleteThe UK ones (usually by Sovereign print or the Picture Factory) are fairly common still. Value is £15-20 unframed, £20-30 framed.
DeleteThe smaller versions £5-£10 tops. Hope that helps!
I have a complete set of 8 still in the packaging tube 1983. Part of a budweiser promotion..
ReplyDeleteFirst we'll walk through some reasons why the road to getting American Football included into the Olympics has not been an easy journey, followed by why we believe flag football to be the logical solution and choice as a future Olympic sport. norwich city
