Own a Piece of Manchester United History: Original Old Trafford Sign and Cristiano Ronaldo Boots Up for Auction
Manchester United fans have a unique opportunity to show their support for the team with an original sign from Old Trafford up for auction. The six-foot-high red lettering, which used to be displayed at the Stretford End until 1992, is now available for bidding. Believed to have been given to Sir Matt Busby's barber, the sign is currently in the possession of a private collector and is valued at £40,000-£60,000.
In addition to the iconic sign, the auction will also feature three pairs of Cristiano Ronaldo boots, one of which is a prototype with the earliest CR7 branding. These boots were obtained from a former Manchester United kit cleaner who worked with the club for around 40 years. The estimated prices for the Ronaldo boots range from £4,000 to £15,000.
The upcoming "Made in Manchester" sale by BUDDS is scheduled for April 28. This auction presents a rare opportunity for fans and collectors to own a piece of Manchester United history, whether it's the original sign from Old Trafford or Cristiano Ronaldo's iconic boots. Don't miss out on this chance to own a piece of football memorabilia that holds significant historical value.
