Framed College Football Art

The first football game between universities was played almost one and a half centuries ago, with the protagonists being Rutgers University and Princeton University. The game itself changed a lot over the course of time and a decisive moment was the one when rugby was adopted by the US audience and changed into American football. Over the first 15 years, the sports resulted in serious injuries and even deaths, but despite being still a very physical sport, it is far safer today.

The NCAA was founded in 1910 and there are framed college football posters dedicated to those first years when college teams played in this format. Harvard Stadium served as a place where football was played on a regular basis and not surprisingly it is featured in black-and-white art prints. After the National Football League was created, the audience shifted to this competition, but college football remained very popular. Today it is regarded as a more dynamic sport, with nonstop action and it also serves as a brewery for talent.
