General

"This is a flipbook of football photos for Mr. Burns class from the Stephan Archives at the Lawrenceville School. They are in chronological order to show the progression of athletes, and reflect on the history of football. The football leather and string were used to create an old and well-worn feel. The use of football materials is also significant, because they connect all the images together for footballs have remained relatively similar over the years. The photos are in black and white to add a dramatic effect and to convey a feeling of seriousness to the viewer."
