Pa Corbin's 1888 Yale team photo
I was contacted by the Tiffany Co to purchase this large, original 1888 Yale football team photograph from their archives. This team went 13-0 and was untied and unscored upon that year. What makes this piece extra special is that it was acquired from an estate auction of Pa Corbin's grandson. After confirming the provenance with his descendants, this photo was indeed the personal copy of the team's infamous captain. I feel blessed to be the temporary custodian of such a historic piece.
Attached is a pic with my eight year old son. Mark
