Football Photographs, 1900-1978, 1949
Scope and Contents
Back of photo: (Guard) Pete Tinsley, Left Johnny Blood (Center) Halfback Joe Laws (Right) ----- Order of names written on photo is in error. It should be, from left to right, Joe Laws, Johnny Blood McNally, Pete Tinsley. Joe Laws played for the Green Bay Packers from 1934 to 1945. Jersey number 24. In college, at Iowa, he was a quarterback. Johnny "Blood" McNally, SJU '23 and later St. John's football coach, was on the Packers as halfback, 1929-1933 and 1935-1936. Elijah Pope "Pete" Tinsley played guard for the Green Bay Packers, 1938-1945. Jersey number 21. College: Georgia. Print is chemically damaged--not enough fixer. Similar photo online says it was taken on the Packers practice field, and has the names reversed.
