    Description

    >Offered here is an
    old and original
    1962 LIBERTY BOWL
    unused decal
    , featuring the Oregon State University Beavers
    !!
    Please see
    both
    photos, as they are an important part of my description. This was an early 4th Liberty Bowl game, played on Dec. 15, 1962 in
    Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
    at Philadelphia Stadium. The backing paper that the decal is on measures approximately 6 1/2" x 4 1/2", with the actual decal measuring slightly smaller than that. was produced here in Eugene, Oregon by Potter Mfg. (they made lots of pinbacks and decals back in the day...). The decal depicts the
    Oregon State Beavers
    mascot,
    "Benny Beaver"
    ....he's shown here as a band member, pounding his drum. Extremely colorful bowl game memorabilia, and a
    rare
    collectible to find!

    History
    : the
    Oregon State Beavers
    defeated the
    Villanova Wildcats
    on this day, 6-0. O.S.U. Qb
    Terry Baker
    was named the Liberty Bowl MVP; his stats included a 99-yard touchdown run. Baker claimed the
    1962 Heisman Trophy
    , and led his team to the victory.
    Alex Bell
    was head coach for Villanova (Villanova, Pennsylvania), while
    Tommy Prothro
    lead the Beavers (Corvallis, Oregon). Bad weather made the field frozen and the temperature never rose above 25 degrees, making all efforts at reaching the end zone nearly futile. Villanova had their chances, but a touchdown was called back due to a penalty and had another chance intercepted by the Beaver defense. This was the first bowl win for the Beavers since 1942, and was also the last bowl win until 2001.
