Wales Cap Awarded to Percy Bush

This wonderful Wales honours Cap was awarded to Cardiff fly half 'Percy Bush' after he made his Wales debut against the touring All Blacks in 1905 'The match still causes a huge debate today' as Wales won 3-0.

There are plenty of books which cover the 1905 tour which I would recommend such as:
The Originals 1905 All Black Rugby Odyssey by John McCrystal
1905 Originals by Bob Howitt & Dianne Haworth
Tommy Vile – A Giant of a Man by Phil Grant (a personal favourite of mine).
Willie Llewellyn – The Road to Victory over the 1905 All Blacks – by Phil Grant.


1905 - Percy Bush
