~ Portsmouth FC 1934 FA Cup Final football team. Large mounted (Cribb) presentation photo with names ~
This is an original presentation photo given by the Directors of the Club to an unnamed recipient “as a Memento of the cup Final v Manchester City, April 28th 1934”.
We have had this professionally remounted so that it is ready for framing
It shows the Portsmouth team who played the 1934 F.A. Cup Final against Manchester City. The title caption and all the names have been added in ink – presumably by the Southsea photographer Stephen Cribb. The photo looks like it was taken below the South stand at Fratton Park.
~ Dimensions ~
Including the mount it measures approximately 50cm x 35.5cm. The visible area inside the bevel edge mount is 35cm x 21.5cm.
~ Condition ~
There are a few small areas of damage to the lighter brown card on which the photo was originally mounted and annotated. There is also some silvering to the photo surface in the darker areas, but this only becomes more noticeable when you tilt the photo to the light.
A rare original piece of Pompey memorabilia by one of the city’s best known photographers.
