RUGBY AT TWICKENHAM (1921) Poster Reprint - The Cabbage Patch, England Rugby Home Field Pitch - Lon

The hallowed turf at Twickenham has changed a lot since its humble beginnings. Since the early 1900s the turf has transformed from an actual cabbage patch to 'The Cabbage Patch', home of the English national team and the home of Rugby. It has been the site of some truly spectacular matches including, but definitely not limited to, Australia's controversial narrow win over England in the 1999 World Cup, and an amazing run of 19 unbeaten home games for England beginning in late 1999 lasting a period of five years culminating in an Irish victory in 2004.

This amazing, rare, historic print, published in the UK by the London Transport Museum, features a reprint of a vintage 1921 poster promoting travel to the Patch by Underground and Tram on the London transit system. With amazing action artwork from a glorious era in the history of the game, it evokes thoughts of piling into the grandstand on a chilly Saturday afternoon and enduring friendly banter between opposing fans, all while feeling the anticipation for the match build within to a fever pitch.

Celebrate Twickenham and the beautiful game in style with this glorious print ­ perfect for the wall of any fan!
