1924 Photograph of Red Grange running the ball for the University of Illinois from still early in his superstar career. A full year before he would make his professional debut, this is an early image in full uniform. Photo has some pinholes from editorial use but overall it is not bad. Issued by Underwood and Underwood and stamped on the back, we are sure of the dating as we sold another photo in 2015 from this same photo session with a cool caption on the back talking about his recent game against Iowa which dated it concretely to 1924.
