1908
Football Action ~ E41 Series
Birn Bros.
6 postcards
These postcards were originally shown in a Football Postcard Collectors Club journal (pages 836 to 840), the postcards, like many of that era, were printed in Germany.
UPDATE (03-07-2024 20:41): Leslie Millman has been in touch, he's a well-known and well-respected collector of Manchester United memorabilia and he is convinced that only two of the postcards listed as showing scenes from the 1908 F.A. Charity Shield game are correctly identified. I have amended the listing accordingly.
A Back Clearing - 1908 F.A. Cup Final (Wolverhampton Wanderers v Newcastle United)
A Neat Dribble - 1908 F.A. Charity Shield (Manchester United v Queens Park Rangers) - 27 April,1908 at Stamford Bridge, London - amended
A Run by the Forwards - 1908 F.A. Charity Shield (Manchester United v Queens Park Rangers) - 27 April,1908 at Stamford Bridge, London - amended
A Throw In from the Touch Line - match not identified - amended 03-07-2024
An Anxious Moment - match not identified - amended 03-07-2024
Well Saved - 1908 F.A. Cup Final (Wolverhampton Wanderers v Newcastle United)

Only a Run by the Forwards and A Neat Dribble involve Manchester United v QPR in the 1908 Charity Shield 2 Matches. The other two have nothing to do with Manchester United. Perhaps Arsenal at Plumstead perhaps?
