Old Tech memorabilia

[Supersizethatorder-mutt]

I have the same set. Got it in Moscow also, but definitely made in China.

I guess I've never checked to see where they were made, but that doesn't surprise me. They had dolls for several other schools there as well, most notably Clemson, but NONE for Georgia

My ex-wife’s uncle made the interception to seal that win over Bama. He still makes most games. Don “ol stick’em” Toner.

That is great. I wish we had some sort of sticky type post of “where are they now”.

Always wonder about the players I admired when I was just a kid and what happened in their life after leaving GT.

I bet many is the time that The Interception Mr Toner made has popped into his memory out of nowhere as the years have gone by.

We put some flowers on Billy Lothridges’ resting place in Gainesville a few months ago.

Got a similar set in Prague this year.

Which players are in the set you have?

Just look at my icon. That is a shield I bought in the early '60s at Muse's on Peachtree Street. How would I know over 50 years ago that eventually my grandson would play and graduate from GT?

View attachment 4467 So i found this old GT car tag at the flea market in Collinsville, AL this weekend and it got me thinking that i bet some of the folks on GTswarm must have some super-cool old GT memorabilia- tickets, programs, photos, jerseys, etc. Post up pics of your favorite Tech swag, i’d love to see it. Also if anyone knows anything about this tag i bought let me know, i’ve never seen this particular graphic before.

P.s. mods if this needs to be moved to chat or something i apologize, wasnt sure where to post...

I used to go to Collinsville Trade Day all the time. My family had a small cabin on Weiss Lake and we'd drive up on Saturday mornings. Never found any GT memorabilia, so you got lucky!

I know! It’s 99.999% Bama and Auburn stuff there

I know he got flagged for it, but I loved that Tackle Tre made on the far sideline on Kickoff.

This is the set

This is the set

Since I don't know what year they represent, I don't know whose numbers those are. Who are they?

My first Tech jersey was 27 because of his play.

I think they were from the 2016 season.....they had not gotten the 2017 rosters yet. They are pack away ( we moved in August and are still wrapping up house renovations....kitchen just went on line last night)

Looks like Mills, Lynch, Justin, Jeune, and maybe Stewart....I can't make out what's after the "8" on the smallest figure.

Bless you, he was right up there with "The Young Lefthander" as one of my favorite QB's. Unfortunately hit the wrong button "unlike" when I thought I had pressed "like button".Sorry.

Well, it's not football related, but here's the best memorabilia in my house...

 

[Jim Prather]

I am officially impressed!

 

[Animal02]

Forgot I had this. Circa '68 when my brother first arrived at Tech.

Unfortunately, #1 is Reggie Ball

Russian trolling at its finest
