**A Legendary Figure on the Gridiron: Alex Arcasa - Stansil Powell (circa 1910-1915)**
This photograph captures a moment in time with Alex Arcasa, an American football player of Filipino descent, as he stands proudly wearing his helmet and uniform. The image is attributed to Bain News Service, one of the most renowned press photography agencies during the early 20th century.
Arcasa's impressive physique and confident demeanor are on full display here, a testament to his skills on the field. As a standout player for Carlisle Indian Industrial School (now known as Dickinson College), he was part of an era that saw American football gain popularity across the country.
The photograph is believed to have been taken between 1910 and 1915, during which time Arcasa played fullback or halfback for his team. His impressive athletic abilities earned him recognition not only on campus but also in local newspapers and sports circles.
This image serves as a poignant reminder of the rich heritage of American football, particularly during its formative years when athletes like Alex Arcasa helped shape the sport's identity. The photograph is now part of Heritage Images' extensive collection, offering a glimpse into an era that continues to fascinate us today.
