NOTE: Here is yet another Thread where the critical content has been lost.
Again, hopefully the Posters will visit and add their photos.
Some were truly classics.

Here are a few of mine:
I think the old Rams night games had a really neat photo quality. I also liked the simple look of the Redskin "feather" uniforms.
Its interesting how far away the stands are from the players...it makes them look more isolated. It really feels like old-time football...bad weather, players making their own heating source, capes, Browns uniforms, etc.
Walter Iooss said that he liked the backdrop of the Coliseum, and he also liked the way the Chiefs would form their huddle in a dignified fashion. I like how the stands are only partly filled...it gives the Super Bowl a personal feel to it.

self edit - couldn't get the photo to display in the correct size and can't figure out how to just delete my post.

With the newspapers emptying out their archives and selling off their old wire photos, this is a great opportunity for collectors IMHO - couple of my favorites from the 1940s - the Giants "Brain Trust" and the Giants players waiting for a train

I still have no idea how to post a jpg here. I go to full editor, I choose the exact file (Which I open and look at before), then click attach file and it tells me "No file was chosen" I went to advanced file upload, it showed me a window with the file address, no image and went I hit preview, it disappeared. How hard could this be?
I don't think anything works, go here:

The NY Times pic comes off microfilm. Also, isn't there a 75 year limit on such things?. Do they care about a bad reproduction of an image they would never ever care a whit about anymore? Not used for profit?

I apologize for the awkward attachment. Like the other poster, I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to attach a photo.

No, not me. Came across the photo on the internet somewhere. Great pic. Reminds me of simpler times when men were men.

Yep, I agree. You don't see that anymore and these days it doesn't seem that men are men. Maybe you and I are old fashioned.
