Lombardi Time


Fifty-five years ago today, this issue of TIME magazine was on the newsstands in America. Your Packerville, U.S.A. editor was a mere three months old. The Green Bay Packers were defending NFL champions, and were to play the New York Football Giants again for the 1962 title on December 30th at Yankee Stadium. Vince Lombardi’s Packers were the talk of the nation — and would be for the next five seasons. Enjoy this time capsule of those days and little Green Bay in the spotlight.
