Valued in the "tens of thousands" and dating back to the 1913–14 season, the shirt was worn by Fred Ellis.
Kevin Curtis, from Claydon, who found the shirt in a box of belongings, feels ' lucky' to get to pass the shirt down through his family.

The shirt belonged to Fred Ellis, who played for Ipswich Town during the 1913/1914 season before being sent to fight in the First World War.
