Issued by the New York and New England Railroad, these rare souvenir cards were issued for the November 24th, 1894 Harvard - Yale football contest. The game was nicknamed the "Bloodbath at Hampden Park" due to the violence exhibited by both teams during the game. Each football measures approximately 3 1/8" x 2 3/8". A rare survivor.
