This page of the Wembley Distinguished Visitors Book was signed by the England and Wales squads playing in the war time international on 27th February 1943.
The match ended 5 – 3 to England, with Red Cross charities ‘Aid to Russia’ and ‘Prisoners of War’ benefiting from the additional war time international.
Prior to this match, England had lost their two previous games against Wales during war time, and they decided to switch back to fielding an experienced side to try and stop the slide, coming through against a tough Welsh side under the captaincy of Eddie Hapgood.
