Here is another cool find while doing some of the cleaning recently.
This is an FDC (First Day Cover) honoring the "Buffalo Bills Super Bowl XXV Champions" from January of 1991. To their credit, the Bills had actually been strong favorites heading into that Super Bowl, having beaten the New York at Giants Stadium just weeks earlier. It was a tight game, and to be fair, the Bills very nearly won, before the infamous "wide right" kick from Scott Norwood's foot. Within a few years, the Bills seemed to be synonymous with losing the Super Bowl. But this FDC was a real find, obviously printed before the game for distribution, and which I found and obtained some years ago, because it fascinated me.
