Item Description
Take home a piece of history with this Baltimore Colt's framed collage of the "Greatest Game Ever Played".
The December 28, 1958, championship game against the New York Giants in Yankee Stadium elevated football into the national spotlight. It was the first ever championship game to go into overtime and the first to be televised. The 58' championship game wasn't the best game ever played (though it had 13 Hall of Famers in it), but instead was the most important game ever played - showing the excitement of professional football.
This game was loaded with 12 Hall of Fame players and 3 Hall of Fame coaches. Of these, the Colts featured Raymond Berry, Art Donovan, Gino Marchetti, Lenny Moore, Jim Parker, Johnny Unitas, and head coach Weeb Ewbank; and the Giants featured Rosey Brown, Frank Gifford, Sam Huff, Don Maynard, Andy Robustelli, Emlen Tunnell, and phenomenal assistant coaches Vince Lombardi (offense) and Tom Landry (defense).
The Colts had won 23-17 and the NFL as we know it had its foundation.
