Interesting! I agree - the brown pants, vertical striped jerseys, and helmets all look like football in the 30s. Also, the brown ball (Rugby is a white ball at least in modern times). Another giveaway would be blocking. You can't block in Rugby and it could be argued that it looks like some blocking occurred. I do see "Rugby" on the back of the card though and given that our football isn't popular in any other country even in 2015 makes it seem more likely to be Rugby than American football. Anyone know what language that is?
