Is Joe Montana on the '79 Box?

Good question. No idea. Perhaps they meant to frame Doug English #78 for the Lions and an All-Pro in '78 in the photo, but the crop job was terrible

That's definitely Plunkett!

Looks like Plunkett's face.

I agree it's Plunkett. What's eerie is the likeness he has to Montana.

Yep, definitely Plunkett. Another sure giveaway is the two-bar mask, which is what Jim Plunkett wore for the Patriots, 49ers, and Raiders. Joe Montana always wore an OPO mask, not a two-bar.

Power of suggestion.

Perhaps. I was hoping it was an action shot of Joe. The wristband is what sealed the deal for me. I looked at photos of Plunkett and that is part of his look.

Looks like Plunkett to me to. Fun what if though.
