Provenance

In 1905, the Welsh Dragons went undefeated and beat the New Zealand All Blacks in a legendary match; (they were the only team to beat the All Blacks in their 35-stop tour). Before the game, the All Blacks performed the famous Haka, and the 47,000-strong crowd answered with an impromptu but hearty rendition of the Welsh national anthem, ‘Land of our Fathers’. It was, allegedly, the first time a national anthem was sung before a sporting fixture.In collaboration with Sports D'Epoque.
