To say Phil Atkinson is a rugby expert is quite the understatement. He is the editor of Touchlines, the magazine of the Rugby Memorabilia Society, which he formerly chaired. He is president of Welsh rugby club Rhymney, for whom he played, and whose centenary history he wrote. He is also co-author of The King’s Cup 1919: Rugby’s First World Cup. And Atkinson is a lifelong collector of rugby memorabilia. Cover Art Courtesy of Amberley Publishing Simply put, Atkinson was the perfect choice
