Did you know that these classic trainers (pronounced sooPERgah) were named after the Basilica that overlooks Turin, where royals are buried and Italy's biggest football tragedy unfolded?
This is so fascinating, thanks. We have a blue plaque dedicated to the (British) inventor of vulcanised rubber Thomas Hancock here in Marlborough. Turns out it was invented simultaneously by two men across the pond!
Such a tragic tale. Thanks for sharing all this history and I am really enjoying your design postcards.
I’m so pleased you are enjoying. They’re fun to find.
Wonderful, I didn’t know any of this!
