O/T: Question About Vintage Football Photo
I purchased this photo quite some time ago because it was cheap. I don't collect football items and would like to sell it. Can anyone give me an approximate age? Rough value? It says "Yale vs West Point, Oct 17, 08 - Ready to Play". The photo appears to be quite old but I do not believe it to be this old. The photo seems to be a copy of the original.

Looks like a re-shoot of an original 1908 George Grantham Bain photo. The original Bain would have a stamp on the back and was printed in a more "steely" tone, more gray than sepia and almost all Bains are in the 4X6 to 5X7 inch range. Still a cool image and probably worth $25-$50 as a second generation.
