Gene Hamlin - 1970
(Game Worn)

 
Gene Hamlin a center out of Western Michigan only played one year for the Redskins.  In 1970 the "R" logo was quite a bit larger than the very next year.  In 1971 most high impact players, that had their decal changed from time to time due to damage, upgraded with this smaller version of the "R".  If you look closely you can see where the outline of the old decal was.  Also you can check your books and you will notice low impact players such as Curt Knight and Mike Bragg never had this change made.    This old RK was built very early in the 60's and was recondition at least 4 times.  A wonderful piece of Redskins history.
