1896 Yale football Imperial Team Photo

 Here is a beautiful imperial photo of the 1896 Yale football team.  They went 13-1 this year with their only loss to Princeton.  Notable players include captain Fred T. Murphy, Burr Chamberlain, Louis Hinkey, Clarence Fincke, Lyman Bass, and Charles Chadwick.  Original team photos like this are hard to find in the late 1890s because they are primarily in the photo yearbooks.
