The Glory of Titletown (1997)

From the book description: “For the first time, more than 150 of the best photos from Vernon Biever's historic archive have been gathered into one keepsake volume. The Glory of Titletown is a celebration of both sports photography and the game of football, a sincere appreciation of a gifted photographer, and an inspiring tribute to a spectacular team.” There is not much else to say. In terms of Packers historical photography, Vernon Biever was THE MAN.
