1975 – 1978 Vintage Original Adidas NASL Match Game Ball – New York Cosmos Pele. Vintage and rare original Adidas North American Soccer League game ball as used by teams like the New York Cosmos during the years that Pele played in the league. This ball is dated to the 1975 to 1978 seasons because it does not have the patent # information that the 1979-82 game balls have. This one still has remnants of the brownish coating called Duralast that can be seen in the creases between the panels. Shows use and wear but is a very presentable display piece. Quite rare to find an original ball! This one does not fully hold air as the interior bladder is most likely dry… It still keeps a reasonably round shape. I have 8 NASL balls in my collection and not one holds air!
