Cowboys-Redskins rivalry begins...
THE SPRINGFIELD UNION, Massachusetts, October 10, 1960
- Dallas Cowboys vs. Washington Redskins
- Very 1st NFL football game of this famous rivalry
- 1960 World Series of Baseball (game 4)
The sport's section is dominated by reporting on game 4 of the 1960 World Series between the New York Yankees and Pittsburgh Pirates.
But page 15 (sport's section) has a somewhat discrete report on the very 1st NFL game between the Dallas Cowboys and Washington Redskins which some consider the greatest rivalry in sports. The small one column heading reads: "'Skins Scalp Cowboys As Guglielmi Is Star" (see)
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 20 pages, minor margin wear, generally nice.
