H96.1.892


Clipping on the back, "Dec. 8, 1969--COLISEUM CEREMONY HONORS THE RAIDERS' 10-YEAR MEN AND WIVES. George Blanda (16), Bill Cannon (33), Wayne Hawkins (65), Jim Otto (00)." Photo shows the four men in their uniforms holding their helmets and awards. Each of them has a painting of themselves in front of them. Blanda is in the foreground and is the only one looking directly at the camera. A short distance away their wives are also standing together. A crowd of people are watching from the seats so it must be at the beginning of a game or at half-time.
