Sunderland v Man Utd press photo

[Pete’s Picture Palace]

This is the first post on this "Other Memorabilia" thread for a whole week. Isn't there any out there any more?

I thought it was about time I scanned a nice press photo that's just arrived at PPP Towers.

Sunderland v Man Utd, late 60's, not dated but stamped & labelled "Sunderland keeper Jimmy Montgomery goes full stretch to punch away a shot from United's Law (centre)".

A superb shot of the brilliant English keeper, sadly overlooked as rgds international caps in the face of very strong opposition. He'd probably have 70-80 caps if he was playing today, that's if he had been given a chance at his club ahead of all the foreign keepers standing in his way (no particular criticism aimed at Sunderland there, seeing as my own club has had an Argentinian in goal since 2006, and before that a Hungarian, and before that a Latvian.)

Quite good of Denis Law too. Tempting to stick this one on EBay but I won't be doing that. On straight sale @ £15.
