Juan Peregrin Anselmo football boots circa 1930, Provenance: These boots were sold at Bonham's Auctioneers 9th April 2003 as lot 239 and came from the same source as the 1930 World Cup final football. Although dating from circa 1930, the Bonham's vendor was unable to confirm if Anselmo wore then whilst playing for Uruguay in the first World Cup in 1930. Anselmo was part of the gold medal winning Uruguay team at the Amsterdam Olympic Games of 1928, and played in all Uruguay's matches in the 1930 World Cup up to the semi-final, but missed the final due to an injury. At club level for Penarol, Anselmo won five League Championships.
