Special Notes: This trophy was presented to Women’s World Champion, Teresa Gaman, at the Rose Bowl in 1979. The disc was the same as those given to competitors at WFC in 1979. It is mounted on a wooden base with brass plaque. By virtue of winning the Women’s Overall title, Teresa’s signature, along with that of Men’s Champion, Scott Zimmerman, were hot stamped on all retail World Class Frisbees for the next year. NOTE: Original photograph provided by Dudley Gaman. This image has undergone AI-assisted photographic restoration to meet Flying Disc Museum photographic presentation standards. Restoration was limited to presentation elements such as background, lighting, perspective, and orientation. Great care was taken to preserve the disc exactly as photographed, with no intentional changes made to its color, artwork, hot stamp, wear, markings, or other physical characteristics.
