1. When was the game played (what week; I know it was played in the 1960s)? I am sure that the NFL championship happened the week after the season ended, and then the Pro Bowl the following week, so was the Playoff Bowl the same day as the championship, just earlier in the day?

Yes, and, from a business perspective, a well-run private organization, bless 'em.
