Stanley Matthews

Rare post WWII, plywood puzzle from Chad Valley, featuring the legendary Wizard of Dribble, Stanley Matthews (1915-2000), arguably Britain's finest ever footballer who played for Stoke City and then Blackpool(featured here), achieving over 700 league appearances in addition to gaining 84 England caps.
This simple 50 piece puzzle assembles in its own box, featuring a full-scale colour guide picture. Note that his head has been carefully cut out as one piece, a treat usually reserved for Royalty!
