XIXth century rugby scraps


I really like these Victorian rugby scraps, die-cuts, "découpis"... whatever you name them ! (some explanations about scraps here)

The really give a flavour of what XIXth century rugby could have been (in colleges, for instance, like the one above)... they also bring colours among all these black & white photos and prints...

Last but not least, I also like the idea that kids  had been playing with them...

Another one here showing the guys of Cardiff (in blue) vs Newport (in yellow, thank you, Paul !)  I-dont-know- please-help-me (in yellow, could this be Richmond ?)
