I found this in the Wilkipedia... not sure what he did to be an honorary Saint though:dunno:

These are a few 1967 items from my collection (sorry for the bad photos):

The helmet is not technically from 1967, but it is signed by most of the 1967 team members. Between 1985 and 1995 I tracked down and visited most of the living team members and had them sign this helmet and a media guide. Except for the first few I met, I have photos of me with each player and the helmet. I'm still missing a few signatures, but I don't get to travelas much now as I did then and I'mnot actively trying find those last few players.

The schedule poster and pennant are both from 1967.

The "Honorary Saint" certificate was presented to Gordon F. Wilson in 1967. It is signed by John Mecom and dated August 8, 1967. If anyone knows, I would love to find out who Gordon Wilson is, and why he was an honorary Saint.
