Vintage Black and White Sports Team Group Photograph

This item is a vintage black and white gelatin silver print photograph capturing a large men's sports team, likely collegiate or semi-professional, posing outdoors with trophies and equipment. The photograph depicts approximately twenty-three individuals, most wearing matching athletic jerseys featuring a distinctive 'V' neck trim. A prominent trophy with a sports figure figurine is featured in the center, and a player on the left holds an equipment bag with the word 'INTERNATIONAL' visible. The background consists of dense foliage and a tall, slender architectural monument or pole marked with a letter 'M'. The print appears to be on semi-glossy paper stock and is unframed. In terms of condition, the photograph shows significant physical wear including visible curling (silvering or age-induced warping), a large vertical crease or fold mark running through the center, and minor edge silvering at the corners. There are also notable light reflections on the surface due to the curling. The style and equipment, particularly the trophy design and the jerseys, suggest a manufacture date between the mid-1950s and mid-1960s. No specific photographer's mark or studio stamp is immediately visible on the face of the image.
