Birmingham Daily Gazette April 1887
One paper of the above contains the match report for the1887 FA Cup Final which took place on the 2nd. The report also makes it clear that Aston Villa was founded in the latter part of 1874. This contradicts a later alternative account given in 1924 which suggests the Villa was founded in March of 1874, and so is of great importance to the history of Aston Villa. It should be available to all villans.
