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!
