SIGNED

Album page with the autographs of 14 (possibly 15) members of the French rugby union team that toured South Africa in 1958. The French were not expected to achieve much but were to finish the tour as the very first team to win a Test series in South Africa. This is still regarded as one of the great achievements in French rugby. French autographs are notoriously difficult to decipher -confirmed autographs include Dupuy, Marquesuzaa, Rancoule, Fremaux and Casaux.

14 x 10.5cm. Very good condition.
