University of Pittsburgh Football Vault: The History of the Panthers

by Sam Sciullo Jr.

The "University of Pittsburgh Football The History of the Panthers" takes you on a journey through the history of Pitt football, starting with the first game in 1980. Along with a story woven by Pitt alumnus and longtime sports journalist Sam Sciullo Jr., this "scrapbook" contains never-before-published photographs, artwork and memorabilia drawn from Pitt's athletic department, campus archives and personal collections. Tucked into dozens of sleeves and pockets, fans will find reproductions of old game programs, historic tickets, numerous postcards and vintage photos. These fascinating replicas include a photo of the 1910 team that didn't allow a point, the Panthers' 1930 Rose Bowl itinerary, the 1937 Rose Bowl program cover, a 1956 Pitt-Syracuse ticket and program cover, a 1976 Pitt pennant, a 1999 program cover from the last game played in Pitt Stadium and a 2001 photograph of Pitt immortals from three different decades. No Panthers fan should be without this "home archive" of Pitt's football history.144 pagesHardcover book with sturdy protective sleeveBook measures approximately 12.25" x 11"Full-color photos & illustrationsBuilt-in pockets and sleeves filled with team memorabiliaCustom team graphics on sleeveReady to wrapOfficially licensed collegiate product
