England v Denmark 1956 – Busby Babes + Duncan Edwards

This original football programme comes from the England v Denmark match on Wednesday 5 December 1956. On the day it was England who took the points (and the tie) – the World Cup qualifier match ended 5-2.

This is an England football programme. England's goals came from Taylor (3) and Edwards (2) in front of a crowd of 53,000 at Molineux.

It would make a fine addition to any collection of football memorabilia.
