"The French football official Jules Rimet commissioned the trophy from the French sculptor Abel Lafleur for the first World Cup in 1930. It was a magnificent piece: a solid gold 15in statuette of Nike, then still known as the Greek goddess of victory".

It's a beautiful thing.
.....and the cup!

The naked one of me didn't stay around for long, mms. I think the mods took it out, after Noddy asked for a signed copy.
