Ticket - England XV v New Zealand Army, Twickenham, 24/11/1945

Description:
This ticket was for the match between the England XV and the New Zealand Army team, which was played at Twickenham Stadium in 1945. During the war rugby union had been suspended. The Rugby Football Union believed this showed support and respect for the country's war efforts. Months after the war the New Zealand army were still stationed in England and were therefore able to play against the England XV side.
