Description | Football boots advertisement, end of WW1 |
Details |
An advertisement for 'Super' football boots from W. Abbott & Sons of the Strand and Regent Street. The advert suggests to officers that a pair would make a perfect gift to express appreciation of their men, and that playing football would pass the time while waiting for demobilisation. In fact, it suggests having a whip round at the mess and equipping a whole team!
