Football Photo ID Help
 

Anyone have an idea of who this might be? Have not been able to come up with much researching on my own. Looks to be older than a high school player but younger than a pro. Any help would be appreciated.

"Howard Leslie Spedding opened a photography studio in Ann Arbor, Michigan, 1918." Might narrow it down. Here's the article:

Hope that helps. Good luck.

Thanks Ty! Maybe a U of Michigan player? Any Wolverines fans that may know who this is?

Mike - You might make a paper copy of the photo and send it to the Sports Information office at Michigan. With some luck they will have a work study student look through the old yearbooks to ID the player.

Excellent, thanks Mike!

Here's a website that has images for history of Michigan football uniforms:

Doesn't immediately look like any of them. I believe your on the right track about the youthful appearance of this man, might be an Ann Arbor High School football player, or something entirely different. Fun project.
