Periodic accruals to the collection may occur.

Complete information on the acquisition of the collection is not available. At least some of the football films were transferred from the Princeton University Athletics Department. The 2012 videos were transferred from the Athletics Department in 2012 (AR.2012.146).

The film reels are stored offsite at the ReCAP facility. Most of the film is 16mm or 8mm and has not been transferred to any other format. Early films are fragile and have significant warping, along with other potential preservation issues. Access to both film and dvd follows Mudd Manuscript Library policy for preservation and access to audiovisual materials.

The inventory for Series 1 was added by Phoebe Nobles in March, 2018.

Series 3: Princeton Freshman (Frosh) Football Film Reels was added by Kimberly McCauley in September, 2019.

Item Number 580 does not exist.

Recordings of lightweight football games can be found in AC310, Sprint Football VHS Tapes Collection.
