Football itself is definitely in used condition. Please refer to photos. This football is a unique piece of sports memorabilia featuring the autograph of Mike Ditka, a former player and Hall of Famer for the Chicago Rush AFL team. The item is an original, unauthenticated product, and was signed by Ditka himself. The team logo is also featured on the ball, making it a great addition to any collection or a perfect gift for a football fan. The ball is a great representation of the Arena Football Commemorative event/tournament and was made in the United States.
