Large 1929 photograph of Hall of Fame coach Knute Rockne all set to coach his Notre Dame team from the sidelines. He was so good, he could just sit in a chair and lead his boys to victory! Rockne was in the hospital on a sick bed and had to leave in a wheelchair to be there for his team. His presence propelled the Irish to victory and it became just another chapter in the story of the legendary Knute Rockne from Notre Dame! Issued by the International News and stamped on the back, this presents well with one crease on the lower portion and a bit of an angled cut at the top from editorial use.
