Description
1921 Buffalo All Americans vs. Akron Pros Program - Amazingly High Grade Piece from APFA's 2nd Season! Known by Buffalo sports fans as the "Staley Swindle", the Chicago Staleys beat the undefeated 1921 Buffalo All Americans on December 4, 1921, in what was supposed to be a meaningless exhibition contest. But, the archaic rule book disagreed, and actually considered that December 4th meeting as more important than the two teams' regular season game, which in turn gave the Staleys that season's league title.Presented here is a remarkable high grade program from the All Americans' 14-0 victory over the Akron Pros, which came only one day before their historic defeat to the Staleys. Measuring at 7.75x10.75", it exhibits moderate toning, but otherwise minimal wear. The nicest example we've seen from any program of this significant era.
