1925 Large photograph of the man who changed the game of football forever, Red Grange, taken a few weeks after he made his debut and showing off his lame arm for the cameras. Grange at the time was the most famous athlete in America, even more celebrated than Babe Ruth, and his hurt arm was the talk of the sporting world. Issued by the International Newsreel and with a stamp on the back, this is an important piece of early NFL history and despite some wear and creasing, the image presents well overall.
