A Tottenham Hotspur Football Club 1988-91 away shirt bears No. 14 possibly for David Howells who made 277 appearances for Tottenham. Trevor Francis played in the Queens Park Rangers v. Tottenham match.
Believed to be a Game swapped shirt
*SOLD WITH A LETTER OF CONFIRMATION STATING THE ABOVE LOT HAS COME FROM THE ESTATE OF THE LATE TREVOR FRANCIS*
The estate has stated "I would say that Trevor wasn’t into collecting shirts / memorabilia as such himself. He preferred to keep only items which meant something significant to him personally. Specifically, he did speak about the shirt swap with Maradona and I remember on one occasion he thought he had mislaid it and was very concerned at the time, but he did locate it. Trevor bought and sold many homes and his shirts etc were never displayed and basically stored in suitcases or plastic crates. The Maradona shirt was a game swapped shirt, and from memory, I think there is a mud stain on the shirt. With regard to Zidane and Rivaldo, and on the basis of them meaning something to Trevor, I believe they were game worn shirts.

I can’t give you any complete guarantee on the shirts but I do think he would not have retained them all those years ( and stored and transported them through many house moves !) if they didn’t mean a lot to him personally and were of significance."

Possible match/game worn shirt
Over all good condition but there are some pulls to the material as to be expected (please see images). Also there is a XX pen mark to the bottom of the reserve of the shirt, i assume this could be a club kit man reference??.
