Unknown issuer - Football Team Rosettes (02)


1960-61
Football Team Rosettes
Unknown issuer
6 cards

A couple of years ago I added a post about some cardboard team rosettes. I know now those image were incomplete. These 6 cards have turned up and each has a tab at the top advising the owner that when they have folded along the dotted line the tab should be slotted in your buttonhole. Each of the rosettes has tell-tale tufts of cardboard around the outer edge which seems to indicate they've been pushed out from a larger sheet. There is still no indication of where these come from.
I used the 1950's as a possible date for the original post but I have done a little research and the England kit seems similar to that worn against Spain in October 1960 and Scotland in April 1961. The Scotland kit could also date from 1961. Wales' red kit didn't change from 1957 to 1963, while Northern Ireland's kit remained the same from 1957 to 1963, so both those countries also fit the 1960-61 period.
