Item Details

Description

Made by J. & E. Stevens Company. Cromwell, Connecticut - Circa 1905. The Calamity Bank portrays collegiate football as it was played at the beginning of the 20th century. In this particular example, we find two defensive tacklers from Harvard (crimson details) taking down a running fullback from Yale (blue details). Wearing only nominal protective gear, many players sustained serious injuries. President Teddy Roosevelt viewed this situation as potentially very dangerous. In fact, he planned to incorporate the abolition of collegiate football as part of his platform for re-election in 1904. It's a good thing that his political advisors talked him out of it.
