Mid-1980s Umbro Watford shirts are attractive items, for both aesthetic reasons and for the significance in the Hertfordshire club’s history.
This example, worn by club legend Luther Blissett, includes the striker’s number 8 stitched onto the reverse and sold for £800 at a recent auction.
With neat neck and cuffs - aping the colouring of the embroidered crest - Umbro logo on the chest and iconic “IVECO” sponsor, the shirt, of the style worn by Blissett in seasons sandwiching his year at Milan, will likely be cherished as a bargain by the buyer.
This item was sold by Graham Budd Auctions, a specialist in sporting memorabilia.
