, Griffith Teller's illustration for the 1955 Pennsylvania Railroad calendar. Beginning in 1936 when the game moved to Municipal Stadium, the Pennsylvania Railroad operated special game-day service with around 40 trains serving as many as 30,000 of the attendees. To do this, the PRR modified their Delaware Extension and West Philadelphia Elevated Branch freight lines and installed massive temporary platforms at Greenwich Yard.

This work is in the
public domain
because it was published in the United States between 1929 and 1963, and although there may or may not have been a copyright notice, the
copyright was not renewed
. For further explanation, see
Commons:Hirtle chart
and
the copyright renewal logs
. Note that it may still be copyrighted in jurisdictions that do not apply the
rule of the shorter term
for US works (depending on the date of the author's death), such as Canada (70 years
p.m.a.
), Mainland China (50 years p.m.a., not Hong Kong or Macao), Germany (70 years p.m.a.), Mexico (100 years p.m.a.), Switzerland (70 years p.m.a.), and other countries with individual treaties.
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate
{{PD-old}}
tag instead. For usage, see
Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag
.
Copyright mark is visible on the original work; however, by renewal time in 1982 the PRR had ceased to exist and its descendant Conrail did not renew the copyright.
