1893 Princeton University Champions Imperial Cabinet

 The 1893 Princeton Tigers football team finished the season a perfect 11-0  and being the undisputed national champions for that year.  One of the great things about this cabinet is the intricate detail taken of naming each player listed on the back.  Many of these players ended up in the 1894 Mayo set including Captain Thomas Trenchard, Langdon Lea, and Arthur Wheeler to name a few.  Another interesting feature of this cabinet is the early image of Nielson Poe wearing his Groton School jersey.
