Today's Tidbit... The Color Of 1916 River Falls Normal Football

About two weeks ago, I wrote about identifying the school and football team with an interesting logo. After determining the school was Stevens Point Normal, now the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point, I thought I had finished with the Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Association (WIAC) for a while. However, that was not the case since I soon came upon the postcard below of the 1916 River Falls Normal football team.

Regular readers know I'm a fan of real photo postcards (RPPCs) since they capture football scenes from the first decades of the last century and all walks of life. While postcards printed in color were also available, most had scenes of empty stadiums. You won’t find many color postcards showing a small school's football team, so acquire it I did.
