From the collection of the esteemed Helms Hall Sports Museum and will come with letter of provenance/authenticity from Lelands.com. NOTE: Some or all of these pieces could very well be from major fighters, major events, or from a special "famous" donor. Many of the Helms pieces were unidentified with their source information having been lost through the years. However, through photo analysis we were able to prove things previously unidentified by Helms to be very important artifacts. Do your own research and you may have some real treasures.
