Description: THE PACKER LEGEND: AN INSIDE LOOK; AN ACCOUNT OF THE GREEN BAY PACKERS 1985. Excellent vintage condition. Pages are clean. Fist jacket is in good condition. There’s a small tear that’s been fixed with sticky tape. Can barely see it. Covering the birth, rise, and fall of the pro football team from little Green Bay, The Packer Legend: An Inside Look is written by John B. Torinus, Sr., “a retired newspaper executive who once worked as a ball boy for the Green Bay Packers and went on to join the football team's board of directors. A member of the Packers board of directors since 1949, Torinus also served on the National Football League club's seven-member executive committee. In 1962, he left his position as executive editor of the Green Bay Press-Gazette to become editor and general manager of the Appleton Post-Crescent until his retirement in 1983. As a youth, Torinus worked as a ball boy for the team and later covered it for decades as a newspaperman. In the mid-1950s, when the Packers were in financial trouble, Torinus sold stock for the team to raise money.” These facts serve to prove that this story of the Packers was written by someone who was there. Torinus died in October 1985. I will combine postage for multiple items paid for in one transaction so hold off on paying if you are keen on other items.
