Harry Gregg Signed 1958 FA Cup Final Retro Shirt

A survivor of the Munich air crash in February 1958, Harry Gregg was one of the disaster's great heroes. Having escaped with just a bloody nose, he went back into the wreckage to pull out those who were trapped. He rescued a 20-month-old child, a pregnant woman and attempted to revive Matt Busby. A real tough nut, Gregg was as vocal, commanding and abrasive as Peter Schmeichel would become three decades later. His bold personality and powerful physique had persuaded Busby to fork out £23,000 – then a world record fee for a goalkeeper – just three months before the crash. After the disaster, Gregg was part of the patchwork team built by Jimmy Murphy who reached the FA Cup final three months later. This retro 1958 FA Cup Final goalkeeper shirt is signed on the front by United legend Harry Gregg. The shirt bears the special phoenix badge commemorating United's historic Cup run in the aftermath of the Munich Air Disaster. Personally signed by Harry during a signing session carried out and attended by Allstarsignings in Birmingham on 20th November 2011. Comes with an Allstarsignings certificate of authenticity featuring photographic proof and a tamper-proof hologram. Please note: Signature position may vary.
