Default It's football, but too nice not to share

Posted By: davidcycleback

I'd say the price was a good deal, in particular as the player's name
and year was written on back.

For collectors, there's a lot of nice vintage football photos out there,
including college stuff and photos of folks like Red Grange and Bronco Nagurski.
Unlike baseball, college football was big time in the old days and many modern
collectors specialize in their favorite college team. If you have a early 1900s
cabinet of a Notre Dame, U of Michigan or Alamaba player in uniform, there will
be lots of interest in it.

Though the top football photos don't get near prices of top baseball photos (ala
Babe Ruth rookie, King Kelly Cabinet), there is a healthy amount of football
photo collectors.
