What an awesome vintage collectible piece this is. Not only does it appeal to Sprite collectors but to NFL Football collectors and fans as well. This vintage bottle cap is from 1965 and depicts NFL Player Jim Gibbons.
These vintage Sprite bottle caps were like collecting football cards, they were released with average players as well as all-star players. There were also Team Bottle caps that just showed the team logos. On the outside, the bottle cap features a pixilated green football just below the Sprite Logo. On the inside of this particular NFL All Stars bottle cap, it features a picture of Jim Gibbons who was a Tight End for the Detroit Lions from 1958 - 1968 and was a 6th round draft pick coming from Iowa as the 61st pick overall. Jim made 3 pro bowl appearances!
This cap is a great vintage piece of NFL Football and Sprite history that is in good condition considering it's age. It is made a aluminum and is a collectors rare find.
