A signed English colour photograph of the goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel (born 1963) in action for Manchester United. Photo size 20×30.5 cm. Frame size 33×43 cm.

Peter Schmeichel was - an unknown fact for most people - born as a Pole and kept his Polish citizenship until he reached the age of seven. Due to this he could, if life had turned out slightly different, have been known as 'The Great Pole' rather than 'The Great Dane'. In both 1992 and 1993 he was named as the best goalkeeper in the world and even today the memory of his achievements live on in the minds of both English and Danish fans.

Condition
