Packers Yearbooks History Began in 1960

By Richard Mueller

The Green Bay Packers will enter their sixth decade of producing an annual team yearbook in 2010.

The Packers are one of just a few clubs who ever ventured into the yearbook publishing market and have continued each year since the Packer yearbook debuted in 1960.

Back in '60, new coach Vince Lombardi and his young running back Paul Hornung were the stars of the franchise. The yearbook launched a great era in Packer history with five world championships in the 1960s. The yearbook became a way for fans to connect with the team and its quality was a big reason why the yearbook continued to be published as time went on.

Today, the yearbook is a full-color publication that is published annually during the pre-season. The cover price is generally around ten dollars.

Many die-hard Packers memorabilia collectors own each of the issues dating back to that very first one, which was produced in very limited quantities and will set you back close to $400 when you find it. Those from the early and mid-60s will run $50-200 depending on condition, while the other issues can generally be had for under $50...sometimes much less.

The Packers yearbook tells the story of the NFL's most storied franchise through articles, team rosters and photos and the scores and Packers game stories throughout the past 60 years.
