Football card

[edit]

@BillVol: I wonder where one can find the picture used on his trading card. Cake (talk) 06:48, 10 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Good to hear from you. I'm out the door right now so I can't search but will later. But it might be in one of these media guides: http://diglib.lib.utk.edu/fbpro/main.php Thanks for the great history you provide.BillVol (talk) 16:44, 10 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Actually here are media guides. http://diglib.lib.utk.edu/fbpro/main.php?catid=3 Those are programs. Might be in there too.BillVol (talk) 16:46, 10 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Checked all the media guides and could not find the picture. I might have to look into fair use on a 1990 trading card. I did find an image of Roscoe Word. Also, I'd have guessed Nash Buckingham was the first All-Southern selection from Tennessee. However, media guides say Bill Newman was selected in 1900. Never heard of Newman; will remember to look for him. The 1996 media guide has a quality shot of the one I've used for Graham Vowell. The 1990 media guide has a nice series on history, going through the decades. However, it forgets to mention the importance of the 1908 season. Nathan Dougherty gets all the credit for that season at the cost of Walker Leach. If I was a Tennessee fan, I'd look for copies of the books Big Orange: a pictorial history of University of Tennessee football by Bud Fields and History of Football in Tennessee: Golden Memories of Ed Harris — 50 Years in Big Orange Country.
