Colourful rugby...

Yet another youth magazine with a colourful rugby cover ! It comes from Chums, September 1931... Jonh and wife Elizabeth kindly offered it to me when they came across to Paris during the RWC... Thanks a lot ! (and don't forget to visit John's memorabilia website @ ovalballs.com)

Vivid purple indeed... which does not appear in my "repository" of college colours... artist's imagination, then...



Discussing about jersey colours... have you seen the new kit of Stade Français ? an awful blend of khaki and pink that let me think that my favorite players are covered with mud and dust... I have opened a Facebook group to protest against it !!
