1905 - Hartlepools v New Zealand

What we know about this image :

 

The programme for the 1905 All Blacks match, which is a simple "Menu" card with both XVs listed and whoever first owned the item has taken the trouble to record the visitors runaway win. Note that Durham adopted a creation of the visitors, the use of a “wing” forward, today known as "loose" or "flank" forwards. The visitors used the tactic well, it does not appear to have worked for the home XV
