ADA, Ohio (AP) - January 20, 2009

But you've seen his work, especially if you're a football fan.

Moore's now retired after making every football used in the first 41 Super Bowls.

Moore produced more than 5 million footballs during his 44 years at Wilson Sporting Goods, in Ada, Ohio.

Yesterday, the block in front the factory was named in his honor, "Charles Moore Turn."

By the way, yesterday Wilson also started turning out the game balls for the Super Bowl to be played Feb. 1.
