1920 - 30’s Reach Leather Football Helmet - Unique Turquoise Color
Offered here is a striking and uncommon 1920–30’s A.J. Reach Leather Football Helmet, finished in a rare turquoise color that immediately sets it apart from its more traditional brown and black contemporaries. This fine example represents the rugged beauty and craftsmanship of early gridiron equipment, produced by one of the era’s most respected sporting goods manufacturers.
Constructed of high-quality leather, this early helmet features tight stitching and a soft interior padding. The leather remains supple and displays a rich surface patina, beautifully complemented by the eye-catching turquoise hue, which was done during the period. The finish has mellowed attractively with age, offering a wonderful visual presence seldom seen in early football gear.
Deeply stamped into the leather is a bold Reach logo, the hallmark of superior quality during the early decades of organized football. Overall condition is EX-MT, showing only light wear from use and handling — remarkable for an example approaching a century in age.
A true conversation piece for any vintage football collection, this unique turquoise Reach helmet embodies both the artistry and toughness of early American football. Rare, colorful, and beautifully preserved — a standout relic from the golden age of the gridiron.
