Football The Golden Age is a striking look back over 85 years of the peoples game. Here are the likes of George Best, Bobby Moore and Bobby Charlton at the peak of their celebrity, as well as back-street players at the height of their anonymity. From Cup Finals to Clydebank kick-abouts; from Wembley to the local park; from Rod Stewart in a stretch limo after standing on the terraces to see Scotland play England to Nigeria playing bootless away to Bishop Auckland.
Football The Golden Age has the players, the managers, the fans, the boots, the balls, the pitches, the posts and the pies.
In an outstanding visual celebration of the Beautiful Game, each one of more than 275 photographs brilliantly captures a moment out of the ordinary. Brought together, these images present a new perspective on the only game that matters.
"A wonderful collection of photographs. It brought back to me some of the best and most poignant moments of my playing days and, more than that, reminded me why the game has always meant so much to me and to so many others." (Jack Charlton) |
