If you notice it wasn't bought by the National Football Museum or any institution - historic football shirts will have an international market - the seller will have realised this. I guess the time for Boro to have bought was over a decade ago when there wasn't perhaps so much auction interest.
I thought that boro had bought it.. that's why it was there in the first place. Surely someone must have asked about how much they wanted to sell it for before it went to auction!
That would be excellent ....... as long as it was a decent quality, ideally cotton, shirt not the polyester man made 5hite that the replica kits are now
A lot of the stuff in the cases at Boro is on loan from fans and family of players.
The replica shirt for the Foundation is good quality. Not sure whether it is still available this season or not as it was a special order - I think I remember Tosh Warwick helping make the link to the company involved.

Got some good anniversaries coming up..Like this?
Foundation To Benefit From Vintage Shirt Sales - MFC Foundation
Middlesbrough FC and Middlesbrough FC Foundation have teamed up with retro shirt suppliers World Retro to reproduce the Boro’s iconic...
Lots of 1986 badges popping up in the club shop.. could it be.. that we are going to see sense?
Sense in what? Telling the world MFC have only been in existence for 37 years?
So it was you!!
I think we’ve jumped the gun this season.. the grandad collar and retro green shirt would have been perfect for the 2024/25 season!
