Where can I find answers on the very old autographed photo?

I picked this piece up some time ago and I haven't been able to find any answers. I don't know much about it but it's real and has a ton of autographs. What caught my eye was the sig of Leland Richard Meyer. My name is Richard Myers but there isn't any relation. I just thought is was cool.

The item is from 1928 and has 23 sigs on the reverse. It also has some stats:

Ridgefield Park 37 - S.V. 0
Pearl River 0 - S.V. 6
" " 0 - S.V. 26

These stats are in the upper right corner (Reverse)

Weekhawn 0 S.V. 24
Nyack 6 S.V. 15
Kingston 0 S.V. 6
Tarrytown 13 S.V. 6

Bottom Right Corner (Reverse)

Here are some photos

I can't see the scans from this computer, but I can see one of the filthiest usernames I have ever seen on CU. Outstanding work.

After a quick search, Spring Valley also beat Kewanee 28-0 in 1928

A Google Search indicates that Ridgefield Park High School were the 1928 New Jersey football champs. Those guys sure look bigger than I would imagine a high school squad (in 1928) would look like.

I thought it was a high school team but does anyone recognize any of the names or know where I can research the player names? Thanks for your help.

Any idea what S.V. is? Senior Varsity?
