This is one of the best old-timey football pics I’ve ever seen. Those are the New York Giants and the Brooklyn Dodgers playing at the Polo Grounds, 1936.

#26 in white (on the far left) has different numerals (the 2 looks kind of like the Bears’ 2) than #23 in white (on the ground in the center).

Wow.

Obviously you are referring to the double-stripage on #31’s socks, right?

Not sure if noted before: George Sauer 1st and 2nd year cards it looks like his NOB is taped over.

I’m afraid the pastels were real, my friend.

Here’s one more for good measure

I’m almost positive that the court had the pastels on it during the first title in 99

I’m hoping it was a preseason game played somewhere else, but who knows? That’s a lotta pastels.
