For the first time in its 140 year history, PA Photos offers up some of the most memorable sporting images from its massive archive in a landmark series of books that spans the whole of the 20th Century.
Most of the images featured in the books have lain unseen since first being used as news pictures. Hand-picked by PA Photos’ own archivists, each image has been scanned especially for these books, many from glass plates, ensuring the best possible quality of reproduction.
Sports fans will find these books a compelling addition to their shelves - a chance to see the people, and witness the great moments, of the last hundred years of the most popular sports in Britain. The general reader will be equally fascinated by the unique insight into our recent history that these pictures provide: to modern eyes, the crowds and backgrounds are as interesting as the subjects themselves.
