(This page and opposite, top) England plays Germany at White Hart Lane, December 4, 1935; at the Spurs ground, the Swastika flies at half mast in mourning for Britain’s Princess Victoria. The German team was generally welcomed throughout Europe in Hitler’s first years in power. The arrest of fourteen anti-Fascist demonstrators outside the ground was the only incident on an otherwise peaceful afternoon. England thrashed the Germans 3–0. (ALL PHOTOGRAPHS HULTON GETTY)
