This diverse collection of football publications contains many fascinating pieces of memorabilia. Among the highlights is the program from the first ever Pro Bowl in 1951. The set also includes programs from the East/West College All-Star Game (5): '35, '48, '49, '49, '50); College All-Americans vs. Green Bay Packers (8/29/40); Eastern All-Stars vs. NY Giants (9/4/40); and Eastern All-Stars vs. NY Giants (1941). Additional publications include the 1936 "Who's Who in Major League Football" magazine with original coupon attached, Football Illustrated Annual (20 - 1931-53, except '45, '46, '49), Street and Smith Football pictorial yearbooks ('41, '42, '54), Good and Bad Stomachs Strength publication ('27) and the 1960 AFL Yearbook. The collection is overall in VG-EX condition, though there is some creasing to covers and bindings and the earlier Football Illustrated's have damaged covers.
