Can anyone tell me the year/manufacturer of these? Trying to add them into my collection, but haven't found the right match in the system. Thanks in advance..

Are they from a pack or a vending machine?

I literally was looking at a bunch of these I havre today and wondering if these constituted something for this site. I used to get them out of a machine at the bowling alley in high school around the 1994-1995 time frame. You put two quarters in the slot, pushed inthe leve and when you pulled it out, one of these came out in a folded cardboard piece.
This may be one of those rare posts I actually get to shed some light on something, lol!

I believe they changed the design of these after the first year I collected them. I only have 1 or 2 laid out like this. The others are on the carboard in a landscape position with one larger helmet and two smaller ones, with the team title and a Team NFL logo.

Thanks. Yes, these do seem likely from a vending machine. I wasn't sure though as I obtained these with a bigger collection of football cards. Does anyone know if these have been added to this site? The site lists some pretty odd stuff and as long as they aren't "homemade" I assume they would be fair game to add here. Just didn't know the year or want to make any redundant entries. Thanks!

And of course, I'm missing my favorite team (49ers) and so am willing to trade! LOL :)

Vending machine stickers like the 1993 set linked above are not permissible for listing here. If they were, we'd be adding every sticker that ever came out of a vending machine. Admin will be deleting that set shortly. To clarify - just because they came from a vending machine isn't the reason they don't fit here. But they aren't manufactured by a card company, they aren't sold via card retailer, nor are they authenticated by card grading companies.
I cannot speak to the sticker asked about in this thread. It may fit some of that criteria. I will leave that discussion to others.

Nec Aspera Terrent I'll never quit collecting entirely, but I am downsizing. Check out my COMC store and help me thin out what I don't want so I can buy cards that I do want. See something you like? Send me a message on here, and we can knock the price down quite a bit. I'll even take a bit of a loss if it means getting you a card you really want.

Thanks for the response. No worries. I'll just use them as a bonus gift on my trades :)
