History abounds in these bound Notre Dame yearbooks. Established in 1906, "The Dome" chronicles University life, and these three hail from 1912, featuring legendary coach Knute Rockne and major league outfielder Cy Williams; 1918 featuring halfback George "The Gipper" Gipp; and 1929 featuring Rockne and All-America quarterback Frank Carideo. The 1912 yearbook is in Good condition with corner and spine fraying, as well as foxing to the page edges; the 1918 book is in Fair condition with damage to the suede spine and corners, as well as foxing to the page edges; and the 1929 book is also in Fair condition with slight wear to the corners and spine.

The following items are from a private collection of a long-time Notre Dame football fanatic. The quality of this collection is the finest that we have seen.  It has taken a half century to procure these items and now is the first time that some of them have seen the light of day. Enjoy and help to preserve the rich history of the fighting Irish!
