1886 Shirt

[Dixie D]

Didn't think we used a crest until 1920's
Apparently this was used on the 1891 winners medals...

[Old Blue 2]

This is all I could find. From the book: EVERTON 100 seasons at the top VIRGIN BLUES, published 2003 by Skript Design & Publishing. ISBN 1-874799-17-2

The 1881 & 1883 photos in the book show the shirts with half colours each time (blue & white?)

The caption to the top photo is hilarious!!!

The second shows the very first goalscoring phenomenon in football, our very own Fred Geary.

EDIT: That lower photo could show the tops being quartered, as Mikey has shown, but the photos for 1881 & 1883 definitely show half/half. I can scan and post up if anyone wishes to se that page.

Before you go for it and pay, mate, you should know it's actually 19.99, not 18.86.

Happy to help.

I think they were Cambridge blue and white. Essentially a very light blue.

Just for some history knowledge could anyone tell me when Everton adopted the badge they have now?

Looks like an England badge. Perhaps they were allowed to wear them when capped?
