An outstanding official Manchester United matchday programme for the Intercontinental Cup (European/South American Cup) second leg against Estudiantes of Argentina, played at Old Trafford on 16 October 1968.
Issued just months after Manchester United became the first English club to win the European Cup, this historic programme celebrates one of the club's most significant international fixtures. Inside are team line-ups, player features, articles from Sir Matt Busby, information on Estudiantes, photographs, match previews and period advertisements, making it a superb piece of football history.
Carefully preserved as part of my late grandmother's lifelong collection of football programmes and sporting memorabilia, this programme has been well cared for over the decades and is now ready to become part of another collection.
A highly desirable collectible for Manchester United supporters, European Cup collectors, Intercontinental Cup enthusiasts and anyone interested in landmark moments in football history.
Condition:
Very good vintage condition for its age with light age-related handling and storage wear to the covers. The interior pages remain clean, bright and well presented. Please study all photographs carefully as they form an important part of the description and show the exact programme you will receive.
Your programme will be packaged in a protective sleeve between rigid cardboard with Do Not Bend protection to help ensure it arrives safely.

❤️ Own a Little Piece of History ❤️
Thank you for taking a look at this item.
Every piece I sell comes from my late grandmother's remarkable lifetime collection, built over more than 70 years.
She began her career as an air hostess during the 1940s and 1950s, travelling the world and bringing home unusual treasures from every destination. Along the way she fell in love with my grandfather, a Swissair pilot, and together they shared a lifelong passion for collecting history, art, antiques and memorabilia.
In the 1960s she opened her own antiques business, a passion she continued until retiring at the incredible age of 92. She believed every object had a story worth preserving, whether it was a theatre programme, football programme, book, magazine or antique collected during her lifetime.
Today, I'm carefully cataloguing and rehoming her collection, ensuring each piece finds someone who will appreciate it for many years to come.
If you enjoy items with genuine history and provenance, please browse my other listings. New treasures are added every day, and every purchase helps keep my grandmother's extraordinary collection alive for future generations.
Thank you so much for visiting The Antique Asylum. I hope you find something that speaks to you. 💛
