I’ve previously looked at how the mix of teams playing college football at its highest level has changed over the years, yet when I find a document that illustrates those changes in a new (or old) way, I’m compelled to share it. This time around, we’re looking at parts of a 1954 composite football schedule used as a premium or giveaway by SWS Chevrolet, “your convenient downtown Chevrolet dealer for 32 years” in Dayton. Their tagline tells us the dealership was founded in 1922, so it was nearly as old as the NFL and opened the same year Red Grange first took the field for Illinois’ varsity.

Thanks for the correction. I left the image as is and added a note in the article.
The Arizona State listed was "Arizona State College at Flagstaff" which changed later to "Arizona State College" and then to
"Northern Arizona" and is still callled the Lumberjacks.
