Football Heritage & Collectable Memorabilia

Mike Summerbee, a key figure in Manchester City’s golden era of the late 1960s and early 1970s, was celebrated for his skill, leadership, and charisma both on and off the pitch. Ty‑Phoo Tea capitalised on Britain’s football craze by issuing promotional picture cards featuring star players, often with printed autographs, making them treasured keepsakes for fans.

This 1973 colour card embodies that tradition, offering both historical interest and nostalgic charm. It’s perfect for display in a football collection, framed as retro wall art, or kept as part of a broader archive of sporting memorabilia, advertising history, and vintage collectables.
