When Baltimore City College and Baltimore Polytechnic Institute meet on the football field in November, it’s about tradition. The City-Poly game is second only to the Boston Latin vs. English High football match-up in Boston among the longest-running rivalries in high school football. The Boston game dates back to 1887, while the Baltimore rivalry got started two years later, in 1889.

This program is from the November 27, 1947 game; the 59th meeting of these two teams. This program is in great shape considering its age. There is some light wrinkling to both the front and back cover, but no rips or creases. The spine of the program is fully intact. This is a great addition to any Baltimore sports collection!
