Abstract
Bob Koester, founder and owner of Delmark Records (http://www.delmark.com/), also owns and operates the Jazz Record Mart in Chicago. In 2006, he donated this collection of 16mm Northwestern University football films (1969-1981) to CFA. The films are not entire games, but rather highlights of games and individual players. A long-time film enthusiast himself, Bob Koester acquired these films from a camera collector years ago.

Custodial History
Bob Koester acquired the films from a camera collecter who lived on Chicago's northside. The collector had placed an ad for the sale of films, records, cameras and odds and ends. Koester is unable to recall this man's name, the forum or publication from which his ad was placed. Koester purchased only this collection of Northwestern University football games.
