Footballing Legend Norman Hunter was the first ever player to be crowned the “Professional Footballers' Association (PFA) Players’ Player of the Year” for the 1973/74 Season. During his career he made 679 League appearances and played 28 times for England including in the 1966 World Cup. The Myasthenia Gravis Association have been donated an official PFA Framed shirt. The shirt has been valued and is estimated to be worth up to £20,000.
This shirt was made as part of a collection spanning from the inaugural awards in 1974 to 1997 as the PFA celebrated their centenary.
Only four sets of the shirts have been made, or will ever be made: • The PFA own the first set • The second set was sold at an auction held at the PFA Centenary banquet in Manchester, with the proceeds contributing towards the PFA's charitable causes • Shirts from the third set were presented by the PFA to the respective Footballer of the Year. • The fourth and remaining set is now being offered for public raffle with proceeds going to charities.
The shirt is made in halved colours of the the player's club and country, wire woven gold and silver official Club badges matched with the official badge of their Country. It has the winning player’s signature digitised and embroidered on the shirt between the badges, mounted on gold board within an archival quality sealed frame above a printed player profile personally signed by the Footballer of the Year. Two photographs; one portraying the player in match action, the other a portrait of the footballer receiving the PFA trophy. To complete the framed shirts the logos of the PFA Centenary year and and the manufacturers 4 Club & Country Ltd are included. The shirt has a separate certificate of authenticity signed by Gordon Taylor, CEO of the PFA.
