Unknown issuer - Stanley Matthews (Great Britain)


1940's
Stanley Matthews (Great Britain)

1 card

This postcard-sized item shows an image of Stanley Matthews representing Great Britain before a crowd of 134,000 at Hampden Park, Glasgow on 10 May, 1947 as the representative team beat the Rest of Europe XI by 6 goals to 1. I have no idea who the publisher is, perhaps a Scottish newspaper but there were a lot of football cards being printed in Scotland in the late 1940's, so it could be someone like M.M. Frame, A. & J. Donaldson, Junior Pastimes, etc. This one has been removed from a book so there's some paper or card attached to the back.
