The Georgia Tech Football Vault
by Jack Wilkinson (Foreword by Paul Johnson, Afterword by Bill Curry)
In The Georgia Tech Football Vault: The History of the Yellow Jackets, sportswriter Jack Wilkinson takes you through the century-plus history of Georgia Tech football from the first game in 1892 through the 2007 season and the appointment of Paul Johnson as Tech's head coach.
This detailed "scrapbook" contains never-before-published photographs, artwork and memorabilia drawn from Georgia Tech's athletic department and campus archives.
Tucked into dozens of sleeves and pockets, fans will find reproductions of old game programs, historic tickets, numerous postcards and photos.
These fascinating replicas include an 1892 team photo, John Heisman's 1904 Georgia Tech coaching contract, a 1909 Georgia Tech Athletic Association stock certificate, a roster sheet from the 1929 Rose Bowl, the letter from Bobby Dodd announcing his retirement as coach in 1967, a bumper sticker celebrating the Jackets' 1990 national title and a 1940s-style felt replica Georgia Tech pennant.
No Yellow Jackets fan should be without this "home archive" of Georgia Tech's illustrious football history.
Elaborately produced hardcover in slipcase with numerous replicas of football memorabilia inserted throughout in pockets, etc. Signed by Jack Wilkinson.
