The First Play
The Excitement Begins
The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who at the best knows in the end the high achievement of triumph and who at worst, if he fails while daring greatly, knows his place shall never be with those timid and cold souls who know neither Victory nor Defeat...
-Theodore Roosevelt
Bring your wall alive with a Cleveland Browns classic! This poster features artist Raymond A. Simon's 1999 work of art, "The First Play", celebrating the dawn of a new era in Cleveland football. It takes you to the gridiron of Fawcett Stadium in Canton, Ohio on August 9, 1999, when the pre-season opened with the Hall of Fame Game pitting the new Browns franchise against the Dallas Cowboys. It took four bitter years after the betrayal, but the NFL was back in Cleveland!
Officially licensed by the National Football League, this local Cleveland-area publication was a classic of an era, produced for sale upon the re-launch of the Browns in 1999. Rarely seen since, we were lucky enough to purchase the remaining stock from an Ohio memorabilia dealer in 2019, and are making them available on a first-come, first-served basis. Don't miss your chance at owning one of the final remaining pieces of this legendary edition!
