DescriptionA group of football players and others stand along a railing at the Albuquerque, New Mexico train station. There are two figures in the center. Red Grange (center left), football player for the Chicago Bears, wears a light-colored double-breasted suit and striped tie. His hands rest on a football which is on top of the railing. He is talking to a crowed. The other figure, a young man at the center right of the photograph, wears a V-neck sweater with a large NM at the chest. He wears a collared shirt and tie beneath and looks down. Men in suits stand behind them, including Mayor Clyde Tingley, second from far right. Young boys hang onto the other side of the railing and look up at the men.On View
