McGill comic rugby postcard


A recent eBay acquisition...

This is a nice early XXth century (posted in 1912 actually...) rugby postcard illustrated by Donald McGill.

I have read in this article from Wikipedia that Donald McGill lost a foot in a rugby accident at school... that's crazy !

I have already posted other rugby cards from the same artist... here they are again... but the last three cards belong to John...

If you want to retrieve larger size pictures of these postcards... just type "McGill" in the "Google Box" middle of the left column... it will drive you there...
