On 6 November 1887, in a hall at 67 East Rose Street in the Calton, Glasgow, Brother Walfrid presided over a meeting that founded Celtic Football and Athletic Club.
The aim was simple. To raise money for the poor children of the East End, who came to St Mary’s parish hungry. A football club was a means of doing that.
The building is long gone. The “67” on the design is the address, and reads as something else to anyone who knows what Celtic became in another European city, eighty years later.
A small piece of typography. Two layered meanings. The kind of detail Celtic supporters notice and no one else does.
