This auction is for a HOUSTON OILERS, Toes Up, 1961-1962 AFL, Mint Condition Bobbin Head, also known as nodders. They were made in the early sixties and the toes up version is by far the most beautiful, the cutest and also the most desirable and popular of all the football nodders. There are two varieties of this nodder. One has the typical light shirt, that we've come to associate with the Oilers, and the other is a dark blue shirt. I'm unaware of either being more or ...less scarce then the other but I do know that the light blue is far more desirable. I've seen both and prefer this one by far. This is also part of the infamous AFL toes up with baggy pants set, which just happens to be my favorite. It contains the Dallas Texan, my absolute favorite nodder, the Houston Oilers, Buffalo Bills, New England Patriots, Denver Broncos, Oakland Raiders, New York Titans and the San Diego Chargers. I have all but the Patriots, still searching for a nice one of them. In the set there are numerous exciting facts. The Patriots helmet has a 3 cornered hat, the Oilers has a gushing derrick, the Titans, is defunct and soon to be Jets, the Texans, soon to be Chiefs, has a beautiful decal of the state of Texas and is in fact the most beautiful of all nodders in existence. The Titans and the Texans bring the most money but the Raiders is believed to be the rarest of the 8 in the set. This Oiler has a slight chip underneath his head, a small hairline in the back of his head. There are also two different variations to the light blue Oiler shirt version, but neither is considered to be more or less rare. The Gem Mint one that I recently sold brought nearly $2000. This guy will I'll list at $700. He's still gorgeous, one of my favorites every, and to the untrained eye looks identical to the MINT one. Your family and friends won't even see the difference, but you and I will!
