One of the most underrated players in football history is Charles "Buddy" Young. He was perhaps the best player in the world at his prime and was one of the first black players to integrate professional football after WWII (1947, the same year Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier in baseball). The offered image shows Young in uniform with the New York Yankees of the AFC. Dated 1947, this is an important image in great shape.
