Cup'', pages 77/78 providing a photograph of the Wolves team and a match report; and Martin Tyler's book Cup Final Extra!, page 40 providing a reproduced Sporting Chronicle Match report and illustrations of the team and the scene at Fallowfield, Manchester (5) T S C Crowther was an illustrator from 1891 to 1907 for The Daily Graphic, The Graphic and various other magazines. It is highly likely that the present artwork was produced for The Daily Graphic as inscribed ''3 cols, immediate'' on the reverse. Wolverhampton Wanderers beat Everton 1-0 in the 1893 F.A. Cup Final to lift the trophy for the first time in their history. The Final was played at Fallowfield Stadium. Due to serious overcrowding, which delayed the start of the game and caused damage to the ground's infrastructure, the Cup Final was never to return to the Manchester venue. On the hour mark the Wolves captain Harry Allen launched what could only be described as a hopeful lob from distance into the Everton box. Richard Williams, the Everton 'keeper, completely misjudged the danger and allowed the ball to bounce into his net.
