Aston Villa v. Huddersfield Town F.A. Cup Final; match programme, 24th April 1920 played at Stamford Bridge The programme condition is very good, with some evidence of being folded in half which is more evident on the back cover. on the inside there is some evidence of rust from the staples, which is particularly visible in the centre pages and has affected the clarity of the team line up for Aston Villa and Huddersfield Town's goalkeepers. The programme has no issues of writing on the pages. The 1920 English Cup Final was the first to be played both after the end of WW1 and also at Stamford Bridge. The venue in London had been, for a number of years, The Crystal Palace with the last Final played before the war being moved to Old Trafford, Manchester. Aston Villa won the game by one goal to nil for a then record sixth time. It was also the first ever English Cup final to require extra time being played.
