I am not certain that the second and third images above represent two distinct helmets. During 2000, McPherson apparently used the "M" logo on the left side of its helmets, and players' numerals on the right side. Whether that scheme was in place during 1999 and earlier season, I am not sure, but I do know that numerals were used on at least one side of the helmet during 1999.
