Look at those beautiful BLUE jerseys!

Actually, considering the era, they were probably brown

View attachment 5155 A stool that was passed down from my Great Grandaddy

Edit: And yes the colors on the stool are: Old Gold, White, and BLACK

Just as importantly, the carpet and walls are very much the correct color. Well done!

Just found this in the basement:
Framed 'Atlanta Georgian' newspaper article from January 5, 1929 from Tech's Rose Bowl victory over California.

Would love to be able to read the article titled “Merchant aid asked in Tech Welcome.”

Great moments.

Hopefully you can read this. The print was so small, and the column so long, that I had to take three pictures of it. It's basically an explanation of the parade details and a request to downtown Atlanta storefront operators to keep their businesses open and lights on that evening.

Notice that nowhere in there was navy blue mentioned.

And to your point, California's jerseys are definitely darker than Tech's.

Here’s some of the items:

- panoramic is 1918
- top left is 1917
- top right is 1928
- the middle is a telegram from Dodd to my wife’s uncle in 1956
- bottom left is 1959
- bottom right is captains in 1961

Never mind. It keeps telling me the file is too large to load.

I love those panoramic shots. They were all the rage back in the day. Every college team had them done.

Why is it so hard to find the championship teams pictures? I would love to buy and frame them and put then in my GT room.

I’ve got 17 and 28. My wife found them thru a guy at Scott’s Antique Market.
