The West Virginia University® Football Vault®: The History Of The Mountaineers® takes you on a journey through WVU football history, starting with the first game in 1891. Along with a story woven by West Virginia alumnus and longtime sports information official John Antonik, this scrapbook contains never-before-published photographs, artwork and memorabilia drawn from WVU s athletic department, campus archives and personal collections. Tucked into dozens of sleeves and pockets are reproductions of old game programs, historic tickets, numerous postcards and vintage photos. Fascinating replicas include an 1891 cast photo from the Shakespearean play that served as a fundraiser for the inaugural team, a 1919 program cover from the WVU-Washington & Jefferson game, the 1930 Pitt-WVU program cover, a 1940s-era pennant, a 1954 Sugar Bowl ticket and program cover, a 1969 poster showing artificial turf being installed at Mountaineer Field, the contract Don Nehlen signed when he became WVU s coach in 1980 and a 1983 biography card for quarterback Jeff Hoss Hostetler. No Mountaineer fan should be without this home archive of West Virginia s football history.
