Mention the name Peru to us Scots and we shiver and remember a firm thrashing by the Peruvians at the 1978 world cup when the South Americans wore a shirt very similar to this one. To this day Peru play in a white shirt with the red diagonal and it seems to be a popular shirt design for clubs in the country itself. This is an interesting contrast to Peru's neighbour Brazil, where almost no clubs wear the national colours never mind a close facsimile of the national team shirts. This shirt is made by Walon who also have a history of making shirts for the Peruvian national side and is what you would term a "classic" South American design. As for the club, I can't tell you much about them. They play in the city of Chimbote but I can't tell you who the "Jose Galvez" the club is named after is. Please let me know if you can cast any light on the mystery for me. This shirt was sent to my Peruvian collector Luis Antonio Villegas Condezo. Muchos gracias Luis!.
