1905 | Vintage Football Postcard | German Made BKWI issue

Imported artistry meets football heritage in this rare illustrated postcard from the B.K.W.I. 459-5 series — printed in Germany, distributed in Britain, and signed by continental illustrators E.O. Braunthal & E. Kranzenhofer.

Maroon vs. stripes. Checkered socks. A referee poised for play. A window into Edwardian football culture, rendered with the flair of early chromolithography.

Provenance: B.K.W.I. import, artist-attributed, and now museum-annotated.

Confition: fair to good.
