I think this is an early Redskins media guide
And this letter - a decade later This is from the 4th game in Redskins franchise history - it's the only copy I've seen in 20+ years of looking Last edited by revmoran; 07-23-2015 at 03:45 PM. |

Wow. That's some really nice early Redskins stuff. I think that's the first time I've seen any Boston Braves material. Even cooler that it's your dad. Thanks for sharing!

Those Shamrocks uniforms are great.
I'm not well versed on attendance figures in Boston, but George Preston Marshall already had strong DC ties prior to moving the franchise to Washington that at least also contributed to his decision to move the franchise to DC. He already owned a bunch of laundries in DC that were started by his father, and even owned a short-lived Washington DC based professional basketball team prior to getting his NFL franchise. |

Thanks for sharing. Learned something new tonight.
Here's a comparison of the two franchises' attendance figures: http://www.profootballarchives.com/1936aflbos.html http://www.profootballarchives.com/1936nflbos.html Looks like it was smart to move the NFL championship to NYC in 1936 and to DC in 1937 http://www.profootballarchives.com/1937nflwas.html Last edited by obiwin; 07-23-2015 at 10:33 PM. |
