RETRO FOOTBALL

I've been busy plundering the ArtPix Archives for more images to use on my popular retro collages.

I dug out loads of magazines from the 50s and 60s and found some corkers tucked away!
Especially some famous faces in their very early days!



Brilliant picture of the irrepressible Brian Clough, seen here in his playing days at Middlesbrough, as a prolific striker in 1958.


Future England manager Bobby Robson, also in 1958, when he was a forward with West Brom.


Cracking picture of a young Bobby Moore in 1961. Five years later he would captain England to the World Cup. 


Issue No. 5 of Goal magazine featured this portrait of Manchester United star George Best.

I also found some useful images for teams I'm thinking of doing as collages, to add to my long list.

RANGERS:
Jimmy Millar, who turned out for Rangers throughout the 1950s.

CELTIC:
Another star of the 1950s, Celtic's Bertie Peacock.

LEEDS UNITED:
'Sniffer' Clarke from the legendary 60s and 70s Leeds team.

NOTTINGHAM FOREST:
Forest's winger Stewart Imlach, who played in their FA Cup winning team of 1959.

Can't wait to get started on these new collages now!!
