Need a unique gift idea for the Wolverine fan in your life?

A coffee table book, conversation piece, nostalgic remembrance, and illustrated history of vintage helmets all in one, Wings: An Illustrated Celebration of Michigan Wolverine Helmets was created by the brother team of Michigan alumnus Christopher Dack, photographer, and James Dack, avid helmet collector.

This book is the first to celebrate the history of the University of Michigan’s famed winged helmet, a design recognizable even to casual football fans across the country, a design that has become a symbol of the winningest football program in America.

Fans, alumni, and helmet collectors will enjoy 40 pages of fun facts and original photos, including a complete, eight-page gallery of game-used Wolverine helmets from the 1940s through 2010.

True blue fans and helmet collectors alike will appreciate the illustrated sidebars shedding light on little-known facts about the history of the helmet design that Bo Schembechler himself called the “most distinct” in the country.*

Autograph seekers will appreciate the white inside cover and back cover, a perfect spot for the signature of your favorite player or coach.
