Columbia Lions (1952-54)

Like many other teams in the early 1950s, Columbia wore one jersey home and away, although the Lions continued to do so on and off into the '60s. This particular design has numbers that bring the vintage Dallas Cowboys to mind, and pants that changed stripes every year (random). 

Also note the outlines on the jersey numbers, a rare occurrence for the era.

During the 50s, Spec game photos were about as common as Columbia wins, har-har. 

This was toward the end of the illustrious reign of coach Lou Little, although great moments like the 1934 Rose Bowl win and the 1947 upset of Army that ended the Cadets' 32-game winning streak were long in the rear view -- the Lions were 7-19-1 from 1952-54.
