I love going through old sportswear catalogues and this Umbro example from 1957 is a great example. It includes not only the collared shirts that had been fashionable up to then but also the ‘new’ continental style V-necks that swept the football world in the late 50s.
The catalogue also comes with a covering letter explaining that Umbro kits can only be supplied via a specialist sports outfitter.
Fascinating stuff…here are some pages.
Brilliant find.
Amber and royal arsenal is incorrect. same color sleeves.
