Ineligible for varsity play due to Big Seven conference rules, 19-year-old Wilt the Stilt instead got his start on Phog Allen's "frosh" squad. He debuted in KU's annual Varsity vs. Frosh Scrimmage on November 18, 1955, racking up 42 points and 29 boards in the first freshman victory in Jayhawks history!

Featured here is Wilt as the centerpiece of the Varsity squad just one short school year later. The Jayhawks team photo represents his inagural appearance on the Varsity squad where he'd go on to demonstrate his dominant play for the university and into his hall of fame professional career thereafter.  The 8 x 10" photo is in EX or better condition with some creases in the left corners with along with staple holes in each corner opposite.  Overall a crisp and clean image of Wilt the Stilt with his varisty squad at Kansas.  Encapsulated Type 1 by PSA/DNA.
