2 Photos of Notre Dame’s Four Horsemen, Including 1 with the “Seven Mules.”
Lot 128. 2 Photos of Notre Dame’s Four Horsemen, Including 1 with the “Seven Mules.” Legendary sportswriter Grantland Rice dubbed the 1924 Notre Dame backfield the “Four Horsemen,” and they remain one of the more recognizable groups in football history. The Horsemen were Harry Stuhldreher at quarterback, Jim Crowley at left halfback, Don Miller at right halfback and Elmer Layden at fullback. In three years at Notre Dame, the Four Horsemen posted a 27-2-1 record, including a 10-0 slate in 1924. A sepia 8” x 10” photo, likely from the 1930s, pictures the four members of the College Hall of Fame. An 11” x 14” b&w photo, probably printed in the 1950s, pictures the Horseman behind their linemen, known as the “Seven Mules.” The earlier photo is glued to a scrapbook page and has an ex+ appearance. The second photo is vg with a scuff in the upper left that could be matted out. See also Lots 122 through 127 for our “Four Horsemen Do-It-Yourself Kit,” including autographs of Knute Rockne and the Four Horsemen.
