Rekord magasinet - Rekords Samlaralbum (1942-1970) (02) - Lynn Davies


1942-1970
Rekords Samlaralbum
Rekord magasinet
Sweden
1200+ cut-outs (314 football)

Please excuse this little bit of self-indugance as this is not really a football item. Welshman Lynn Davies won the Long Jump Gold Medal at the 1964 Olympic Games in Tokyo and I've just added this to my collection, as I discovered that the biography includes the fact that Lynn Davies used to play for Cardiff City as a youngster, before concentrating on his athletics career. I've known about this link to the club I've supported since a boy, but was surprised to see it in black & white in a Swedish magazine. I think it makes a quirky addition to my collection. I've included scans of both sides of the sheet that was the back page of issue number 12 from 1965. The checklist for this collection can be seen here - Rekord magasinet - Rekords Samlaralbum (1942-1970).

12-1965.  Lynn Davies
