Aramis Dandoy was a USC Trojans tailback in 1955 who remains in the Rose Bowl record books. On New Year’s Day 59 years ago, he returned a punt 86 yards for a touchdown against Ohio State. Despite his remarkable run in the rain and mud, the Trojans bowed to the Buckeyes that day, 20-7. This lot includes the speedy tailback’s USC letterman’s sweater that was issued to him in 1954. The wool sweater, which has had its size tag cut out, sports the two-color (orange and burgundy) “SC” logo on the left front chest and the Superior Silverwood’s manufacturer’s tag on the inside of the neck. Dandoy autographed in black fine-point marker the orange outline of the sweater’s “SC” letterman's logo. The autograph shows slight fading into the cloth material, but is still clearly legible.
Includes Letter of Provenance from the Newport Sports Museum.
