This very ballot helped Archie Griffin win the first of his two Heisman Trophies in 1974. The offered Official Ballot (5.5 inches x8.5 inches) was submitted by Robert E. Ford of The Kokomo Tribune in Indiana. Ford correctly casted a first place vote for Archie Griffin and voted Notre Dame's Tom Clements and USC's Anthony Davis as second and third, respectively.

Griffin won Ohio State's fourth and fifth Heisman Trophy in 1974 and 1975. He is still the only two-time Heisman Trophy winner in college football history. Archie was inducted into the College Hall of Fame in 1986 and Ohio State's Varsity O Hall of Fame in 1981.

Heisman ballots are an extreme rarity! A Downtown Athletic Club stamp acknowledges it's receipt on Nov 21 1974. Original mailing fold marks are present, but this has been kept flat since. Would look beautiful individually framed or as a group in your Buckeye Room.
