Spectacular image by the famed Boston photographic studio, Notman. Reid is a College Football Hall of Famer and was an important man in the early game. instrumental in the rule changes in the early 1900s spearheaded by President Theodore Roosevelt after several deaths in the game. These rule changes may have saved the game. Reid was key and is given credit for the creation of the neutral zone among others. Condition is an incredible NM (or better depending upon who you ask).
