Capture the history and greatest moments of Huddersfield through the newspapers, as written at the time.

This newspaper book starts with the amazing victories in the 1920s including the 1920 defeat of Notts Forest to gain promotion to Division 1; winning the FA Cup in 1922 after beating Preston; becoming Division 1 Champions 3 times in a row in 1924, 1925 and 1926; and repeated FA Cup Finals including the famous final vs. Arsenal in 1930 where a German Zeppelin (The Graf) was seen flying over Wembley.

Each book measures 38 x 31cm bound in a beautiful premium leatherette now with stylish Charcoal cover, with team name and new football emblem and recipient's name gold embossed on the cover. The new emblem includes the words ‘Decorus Venatus’, Latin for the beautiful game. The personalised label inside the book also includes the recipient's name and a message of your choice.

Relive the tension of the 1932 FA Cup 6th round vs Arsenal where a record home crowd of 67,008 witnessed the game. The great wins are also covered including the 6-1 hammering of Chelsea in 1933, the 8-2 massacre of Everton in 1953, the 5-1 away win over West Ham in 1960 and many more. Read about how Man City paid a record £48,000 for Denis Law in 1960, about winning the Second Division in 1970 and returning to top flight football after a 14 season absence.

Newspaper coverage continues right up to the end of last season. A unique and wonderful gift and must have for all Huddersfield fans.

The book opens with a front page montage of famous Huddersfield players surrounding your own personalised label containing the recipient’s name and greetings.
