Are you ready for some football? After looking through this collection of 1,000 football photos, you will be.
From the archives of the Chicago Sun-Times, this extensive group of football images chronicles parts of four decades. The 1960s are addressed with players like Bart Starr, Dick LeBeau and Baltimore Colts "flanker" Jimmy Orr, among others. The '70s follow suit with greats like Joe Namath, Terry Bradshaw, Ken Stabler, Lynn Swann, Dan Fouts, Tom Jackson and even a few shots of a smiling O.J. Simpson. The '80s and '90s, too, are well represented with unforgettable pictures of Webster Slaughter, Barry Sanders, Reggie White, Joe Montana, Steve Young, Thurman Thomas, Emmitt Smith and so many more. A myriad of coaching greats such as Chuck Knox, Hayden Fry, Hank Stram and a wavy-haired John Madden also find inclusion in this box of iconic images.
In all, this staggering cache of vintage press wire photographs presents an impressive mixture of old and modern professionals, NCAA and NFL games, players and coaches - all things football.
Most pictures are between 5" x 7" and 8" x 10" in size and NM condition. 01573
