There is plenty of information on Ben Haberek's old site. You can find it on the web archive.

Hmm, something about that site looks familiar 😄

I can't use artwork or drawings of helmets as reference material because I have no idea what sort of "scholarship" went into producing those images. Was he really able to find color photographs of all those teams' helmets in 2008? The internet has twenty times as many websites now as it did in 2008, and I can still find color photographs for no more than one or two of those teams.

I remember reading a few years ago that there was no known surviving film from any COFL football game. Sadly, that information may be lost, unless it's stashed away in boxes of family photographs somewhere.
