1916 RPPC. One of the attributes of this postcard that captured me is that it was postmarked only two days after the game. The game was on a Saturday Nov. 11, 1916, and this was mailed and postmarked on Monday Nov. 13. The photographer John P. Troy, who was the official photographer of Cornell University, apparently printed the postcards immediately following the game for sale or just to be given out. The same photo was also used in the yearbook that year.
