Wrapping up our tribute to Packers Hall of Fame RB John Brockington (who died on April 6th) we are sharing some vintage publications from the early 1970’s. Above is the bio listing of him in the 1971 Packers Official Media Guide.
The cover of the 1972 Packers Official Media Guide featured Brockington in action against the Denver Broncos.
In 1974, he made the media guide cover again.
After their “return to glory” in the 1972 season (where they won the NFC Central division, but lost to the Washington Redskins in the Divisional game, 16-3), Brockington was featured on the cover of this book.
Brockington was the cover subject for the 1972 Green Bay Packers Yearbook.
A feature article inside the 1972 Green Bay Packers Yearbook.
An alternative “yearbook”-style publication (which was actually published for each of the NFC Central teams), 1972 Sports Focus Football Issue — Green Bay Packers put the team’s featured star on the cover, as well as featuring him inside.
And again in 1974, the Sports Focus publication put him on the cover, as well as featuring him in an article inside.
