Hamilton Tiger-Cats legend Angelo Mosca was presented with this "Wall of Honour" tribute ring in recognition of his remarkable career in the Steel City. Inducted into the Canadian Football Hall of Fame in 1997, Mosca appeared in nine Grey Cup games during his 15-year CFL career, including two stints with Hamilton spanning 12 seasons, including the last 10 of his career from 1963-72. A five-time Grey Cup champion, Mosca debuted with the Tiger-Cats in 1958 and won his first championship with Ottawa in 1960. He returned to Hamilton in 1963 and won the first of his four Grey Cups with the Tiger-Cats that season. Mosca took full advantage of his reputation as the CFL's meanest player in the world of professional wresting, where he competed under the nicknames King Kong Mosca and the Mighty Hercules. This massive Lustrium creation features six glittering stones set in the laces of a gold-colored football. "Wall of Honour" appears in raised letters across the top bezel, with "Tiger-Cats" along the bottom and four larger glittering stones on the face, one in each corner. The left shank of this huge size 14 ring features "Hamilton" in raised letters with a Tiger-Cats logo below and "1998" engraved on a v-shaped banner at the bottom. The right shank has "Mosca" in raised letters and a helmet with his #68 engraved on the side, with "DT" for his playing position engraved on another v-shaped banner. A fascinating memento presented to Angelo Mosca, one of the Hamilton Tiger-Cats' all-time greats.
