1941 Rose Bowl dated football autographed by the Nebraska Cornhuskers and inscribed, “To our good friend Bob Hope from the Cornhuskers 1-1-1941,” approximately 45 signatures. Formed in 1890, the Cornhuskers had never been to a postseason bowl when the team accepted an invitation to play in the Rose Bowl game on New Year’s Day 1941. Starring All-Americans Warren Alfson and Forrest Behm, Nebraska fell to Stanford and its innovative T-formation offense, 21-13. But the Cornhuskers recovered and for the past 50 years have proven one of the elite college programs, with five national champions and more than 800 wins., overall very good to excellent condition.
