During Notre Dame’s National Championship season of 1988, they featured one of their six Heisman trophy winners on the cover of each of their six home games.  Johnny Lujack was on the cover of the Purdue program (September 24, 1988).  Coached by Lou Holtz and led by Tony Rice, Rocket Ismail and Ricky Watters, the Irish crushed the Boilers.

 

The program is in excellent condition.  There are no creases, no marks inside, and all pages are intact with no dog-ears.  As you can see in the photos, the cover raises up just a little bit although all the pages lay perfectly flat.

 

Because of the glossy finish on the cover, a paper tape was adhered to the front and Lujack signed there.  I am the original owner of this program; although there is not a COA for this item, I personally witnessed Johnny signing it during the 1989 season.  He often showed up at the Ramada Inn to participate in a WSBT radio broadcast on the morning of home games and was easily accessible to fans.  Mr Lujack, the 1947 Heisman winner, passed away this past year.

 

This program is an original, not a reproduction.  All photos show the item that you are buying.  If you have any questions, feel free to ask since there are no refunds.
