Up for sale is a genuine, original official matchday programme from the legendary international fixture between England and West Germany, played at Wembley Stadium in February 1966.
This is arguably one of the most significant friendly programmes of the decade. Staged just five months before the famous 1966 World Cup Final, this exact fixture served as the ultimate tactical testing ground for both nations.
The inner pages features a brilliant introductory piece by Sam Leitch titled “An Appeal for Instant Applause,” analyzing early tournament statistics. The England player profiles and team sheet page boast the core heroes who would go on to lift the Jules Rimet trophy, including Bobby Moore, Gordon Banks, Bobby Charlton, Alan Ball, and Geoff Hurst.
The West German side features detailed profiles and player headshots for icons who would define the final later that summer, including a young Franz Beckenbauer, alongside Uwe Seeler, Wolfgang Weber, and Hans Tilkowski.
The programme includes a comprehensive guide to the upcoming 1966 World Cup tournament layout (listing groups, dates, and venues), a review of past international head-to-heads, and classic retro advertisements for Senior Service cigarettes, Double Diamond ale, and the wonderful “If you can’t beat a bull, join him!” Bovril back cover illustration.
Condition:
- Overall Condition: Very Good clean vintage condition given its age.
- Pages: The inner pages are complete, clean, and crisp with no missing elements.
- Markings: Clean, unscored team lineup pages.
