Wish I had one to post. WOW a .15 cent program.

Wow those are really great. No facemask!

I sure wish my folks would have kept the program from when my HS team played against Franco Harris and his HS team in the New Jersey PO's. Sadly, though, it was lost in a later house move.

Me too! Would love to see Mojo back in the day.

I've got some pictures of some games at the old field, seems to be as far back as the 20's or so. I'll get around to posting them.

Those guys were tough. As you said, no FM, little padding. Lots of broken noses and teeth I bet! That happening today would place a pro player on IR!

Google around the net, you never know. I think the person who found these saw them for sale in Ebay or something. It would be great to see your old program!

Notice how it went up a dime the following year? That's a big jump back in the day.

#31 Jimmy Millerman(playing under coach P.E. Pete Shotwell) sets precedence for the upcoming coach Chuck Moser to take the reign at AHS fall 1953. Pic was made at Amarillo(Eagles as visitor team wears their white jerseys) Fall 1952, Jimmy, carrys the ball over for AHS' TD. Thanks, to Bobby Jack Oliver(AHS'54), extra point, Eagles "barely edge" Amarillo High.

Glynn Gregory(#21), gets loose from Katy Hi Tigers(AHS' playoffs, before state)?
Katy had the paw prints on their jerseys ha far right, believe, is Jimmy Carpenter (#22, took the fake hand off).

Fair Park Stadium. Very early 1900's.

Did you know that the old bleachers at Fair Park stadium were hauled there from old TCU's field in Ft Worth? Neither did I but that's what they say.

and I've seen a few but long, long ago.

Carpenter played for Texas North back when I cared about Texas North, I've seen him play. Gregory I think played for TCU. Pretty good stuff you bring up.
