    The book is signed & inscribed by Fritz Crisler & Tad Wieman both are college HOF coaches with legendary/storied coaching & AD careers (See Wikipedia for more info)......Both coaches signatures & inscriptions are bright & readable, the inscription is made out to Ray Schwartz, both coaches note Schwarz as a friend, Crisler calling him a "colleague" & Wieman noting him as a "good friend" wishing him "many successful season on the gridiron"
    I don't know who Schwartz was & didn't locate any information on him. I'm assuming another coach.....This book was found at an estate sale in Northern Illinois about 5-6 yrs ago.
