Original Club Crest Discovered!

While rummaging in a milkcrate of Latin music records found on a Jersey City street corner, I discovered in one album sleeve not a vinyl record, but some propaganda posters. While most exhorted the reader to "Buy War Bonds" or Ovaltine, one promoted a local sports organization: the First and Fourth Subbuteo Club. What an incredible surprise, to not only find the first emblem of our predecessor club, but that "slap it, drain it, kill it" had applied to Hitler--the original cryptid. Looks like I have some research to do on the history of subbuteo. But until then, enjoy this blast from the past:

  1. Brilliant! Research on, oh magnificent 1st and 4th Club historian. I’m sure other past tournament placards await discovery. These “lost treasures” are high on my Christmas wish list (hint, hint).

    Hail oh beautiful SEBT,
    Muncle Mark
