Early Football Images

Posted By: Scott Mosley

Since this thread was resurrected, I thought I'd share a postcard I picked up on eBay a few months back.

The card shows the Harvard Eleven and is postmarked and dated Nov.25, 1905 from Boston which is where Yale beat Harvard 6-0 for the 1905 championship of college football.

Here is an interesting article on that particular game which, among other changes, lead to the NCAA establishing the 10 yard first down rule.
