sharpeMANCgorton from c.1885 this is an incredibly early and exceedingly rare MANCHESTER CITY artefact - almost a religious icon, in fact! From the mid-1880s when City were known as Gorton, between their West Gorton and Ardwick transformations, this may be a unique surviving example of that earlier incarnation of today's greatest Manchester club!

130 year old! a GORTON FC Sharpe's Play Up footy card, featuring the meeting place of the rivers Irk and Irwell where the historical Manchester castle once stood?  A very rare  "SHARPE'S PLAY UP" generic scene football card but as it is one of the oldest recorded Manchester City relics it's doubly valuable and no doubt ripe for the plucking by one of those millionaires at The Etihad. A veritable bargain at only £195.00

Condition is generally VG+ (some slight handling wear). CLICK PICTURE to see a BIGGER VERSION and for how to buy it
