An Anglo-American Sporting Club boxing dinner evening menu signed by the all 22 members of the 1966 England Word Cup football team at the London Hilton on June 20 1966.

England won the 1966 FIFA World Cup beating Germany 4-2. It is the only World Cup tournament England have ever won.

The game is also remembered for Geoff Hurst's hat-trick and to this day, Hurst remains the only footballer to have scored 3 goals in a World Cup Final.

It was in response to the final goal of the 1966 World Cup Final that BBC commentator Kenneth Wolstenholme uttered what was to become the most famous quote in football history:

"And here comes Hurst. He's got... some people are on the pitch, they think it's all over. It is now! It's four!"

A rare set of football signatures.
