This is for an original program from the December 10 1961
game between the Philadelphia Eagles and New York Giants which was held at
Franklin Field in Philadelphia. The two teams would be battling to see who
would sit atop the Eastern Conference, and the Giants would spoil the day with a
28-24 victory over the Eagles. This would be the first “Fog Bowl” played by the
Eagles as the weather made it nearly impossible for the fans in the stands to
get a good look at the action taking place on the field. On this day though,
Tommy McDonald would catch 7 passes for 237 yards, including touchdowns of 52
and 30 yards along with a 66 yard bomb which is a record that still stands
today in a pass happy football league. Only 5 Eagles have ever surpassed 200
yards and McDonalds 237 on this day still stands as the team record. Program is
in nice shape and the ticket is “back taped” to the cover with the score
written in pencil.
