Description

Stanley Matthews, playing football for Blackpool in the 1953 Cup Final in front of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, gains his first cup winners medal. His fine footwork is enhanced by the boots which he helped to design and which are produced by the Co-operative Wholesale Society - available for adults and schoolboys at co-operative societies everywhere.
[The preservation of this film was funded by a grant from the National Heritage Memorial Fund.]
