"""Neil Leifer, Guts and Glory: The Golden Age of American Football, 1958-1978"" presents the most memorable moments since the birth of pro football.It includes the best of sports photographer Neil Leifer's 10,000 rolls of football pictures, including hundreds of previously unpublished images. Presented in a custom slipcase and limited to 100 numbered copies signed by the artist, this Art Edition comes with one of two chromogenic prints. Books 1-100 are accompanied by the chromogenic print ""Johnny Unitas,"" 1964.In 1958, sports photographer Neil Leifer took the picture that remains one of his most famous to this day. The day he got the shot - Alari Ameche's game-winning ""Sudden Death"" touchdown - was Leifer's 16th birthday. This game, called ""The Greatest Ever Played,"" signaled football's emergence as America's new national pastime; formerly half-empty stadiums welcomed sold-out crowds seemingly overnight while football surpassed pro baseball and college football in national television ratings. Starting then, on any given Sunday Leifer was most likely shooting a football game somewhere in America. His 1961 photo of legendary Giants quarterback Y. A. Tittle dropping back to pass landed Leifer his first cover for ""Sports Illustrated"" and cemented his close connection to the sport.While best known for his iconic photograph of Muhammad Ali towering over a fallen Sonny Liston, and for the enormous diversity of subjects he covered in and out of the sports world, it is his football pictures Leifer considers his best. This collection represents the best of his best, culled from over 10,000 rolls of film on the sport, including hundreds of previously unpublished pictures. It's impossible to conceive of Peyton Manning hovering over an impromptu wood fire on the sidelines during a blizzard, but Leifer captured Tittle's Giants doing exactly that during the coldest game in his living memory (the 1962 Championship in New York, a game ""far colder than the famous Ice Bowl""
