DARREL DALEY LOOKING TOUGH.......


and in the typical 1950's football pose.

Many times these photos were glued to a piece of thin plywood and cut out around the player's body outline. That cutout was then placed on a stand so that it could be displayed on the mantel by the proud family.

Thus it took it's place beside all the other mantel Knick-knacks, which could well include a violin playing stuffed frog that was made by some cousin that was into taxidermy.

Ranks right up there with paintings of dogs playing poker.
