I love this! Many similar postcards were produced from this game - I have one - because the photographer moved along each section of the home support and took a photo, telling the crowd which number it was so that they could subsequently go and buy one from his studio. This looks like section 18. Now, spot the... a) Ladies b) anybody without caps (I've found three) c) Soldiers (there's usually a couple)  And if you're interested, it's still on sale on eBay (not mine, so nothing to be gained by me here  ) eBay link |

Was looking for Wally but couldn’t find him! 😀
Interesting that none of the spectators are wearing their club’s scarves. Wonder what year they became popular? See that the two women near the front are wearing rosettes.

I love these sorts of pictures. Just to look into the eyes of people on there & wonder what happened to them the rest of their lives. Absolutely brilliant.

Brilliant photo, I wonder when smiling became popular in photos?! The young lads at the front seem happy enough so maybe it was their generation probably not smiling at the final whistle mind assuming it was the fa cup They were up against the best team in the world mind  |

Is it just me that thinks it looks like it's been photoshopped ? There's such a clear, crisp edge to everyone it looks like they've all been added, I'm not saying they have but that's what it looks like.
For the record, 1922 was when Town beat PNE in the final (at Stamford Bridge), the BHA game was 2nd Rd away, 0-0, att 22,241, home replay 2-0, att 28,086.

That was taken at brightons ground presumably? You cant see on the photo, but none of them have any trousers on. |

Was in the days when poor people were not the size of a house.. Only western europe has 'fat poverty'... Odd when sugar costs so much? |

And... Just for the sake of completeness, here's my own postcard. This one appears to be Pen #12. There are women here too... and sailors... and soldiers... But I don't think that there are any hatless folks. As you can tell, the photographer simply moved along the banner and got two chaps to hold either end of it.   |

But I don't think that there are any hatless folks. It always looks on the old films that the crowd moves as one, celebrates as one mass?? Everyone in grey or brown, everyone wearing headwear etc, control of the masses? Thank god for the tracksuit... |

Barely anyone wearing glasses. Either eyesight was a whole lot better than today or many couldn’t make out what was going on on the pitch!

A blue and white pinstripe three piece suit would look pretty awesome behind the goal though |
