Great trove of programs from the classic Harvard-Yale football series. Known in Ivy circles as merely "The Game." 1) November 25, 1905. Harvard Stadium (7x10.5"). Loose cover. 2) November 23, 1901 (4.75x8"), Soldiers' Field. 3) November 19, 1910 (7x11"), at Yale Field. Crease in middle where folded. 4) 1903. 5) November 21, 1925, at Soldiers' Field (75x8.5"), loose cover and loose pages. 6) November 25, 1911, at Harvard Stadium, 7x11". 7) November 21, 1908. Yale Field. 1908. (7x10.75"). Paper loss, loose cover, tape. (Harvard Coach Percy Haughton mythically strangled a live bulldog (representing the Yale mascot bulldog) and threw it at the players. 7) November 20, 1920. Yale Bowl 8x10.75". This one has DNA of the greasy thumb of the original fan. Look at it, its cool. Cover does have staining, probably from more food at the game. With exceptions as already noted, very good condition.
