Pittsburgh Maulers USFL Bumper Sticker

Of interest is when you compare the sticker to the pennant, the direction of the helmet decal on the pennant is pointing in the opposite direction.

Also, notice the white outline around the logo decal.  This was a change made in the middle of the 1984 season because the TV cameras could not capture the image of the earlier logo very well.

I simply wanted to post a thank you to my sister for getting me a USFL throwback ringed T-shirt and a hooded sweatshirt this Christmas. A thank you also has to go out to a friend of mine who got me the “I am a football fan… and I miss the USFL” t-shirt.

All 3 were awesome gifts, so a public thank you was deserved!

Here is a terrific website which breaks down the changes in the helmets used by USFL teams, including season-by-season changes.  It also shows the intra-season intricacies such as when the 1984 Pittsburgh Maulers added a white outline to their helmets during the season to help add clarity for television viewers.
