Price: $350.00
Hardcover. Tall quarto. 112pp. Illustrated. Flexible leather-grain embossed stiff card wrappers lettered in silver, with cloth binding strip along spine as issued. A little wear at the binding strip else tight and very near fine. Yearbook for a Catholic College in the suburbs of Cleveland, Ohio. The Senior Yearbook for Don Schula, longtime coach of the Baltimore Colts (where at 33, he became the youngest coach in NFL history) and the Miami Dolphins and perhaps the University's most famous alumnus. Schula appears in both his senior portrait (p. 43), and in the group picture of the football team (p. 67), and presumably in a few other places. Schula led the Dolphins to two Super Bowl victories, and to the only perfect season in the history of the National Football League. Of interest, there are also several pictures of Carl Taseff, Schula's lifelong friend, college teammate, teammate on the Cleveland Browns, and Schula's Defensive Backs Coach with the Dolphins. After his illustrious career, Schula endowed the Don Shula Chair in Philosophy at John Carroll University.
