Pair of official Yankee Stadium programs from the 1958 NFL Championship Game between the host New York Giants and visiting Baltimore Colts. Now referred to as "The Greatest Game Ever Played," Baltimore defeated the Giants 23-17 in the first NFL playoff game to end in sudden death overtime. Seventeen individuals involved in this contest are now members of the Pro Football Hall of Fame: Rosey Brown, Frank Gifford, Sam Huff, Don Maynard, Andy Robustelli, Emlen Tunnell, Vince Lombardi, Tom Landry, Tim Mara, Wellington Mara (Giants) Raymond Berry, Art Donovan, Gino Marchetti, Lenny Moore, Jim Parker, Johnny Unitas, Weeb Ewbank (Colts).

Both programs appear to be in excellent condition with the only blemishes presenting as several small spine tics to covers and light wear to corners. Interior pages are clean and bright with little to no signs handling.
