World-renowned for its penchant for turning out world leaders and Nobel Prize-winning researchers, Harvard University also has an athletics tradition dating back to the nineteenth century. This panoramic shot, dated 1914, depicts the Harvard Football Squad standing shoulder-to-shoulder in full uniform. Known for their intense rivalry with fellow ivy-leaguers Yale in all athletics, the competition comes to a head during the annual football championship, known simply as "The Game." Photo in excellent (EX) quality, black-and-white, and has been maintained in its original frame. A great piece for fans of college athletics and early American football traditions alike.
