Date: 2006

By: Air New Zealand Ltd

Reference: Eph-C-RUGBY-2006-01

Description: A sign to be used by spectators during a rugby match in Britain. One side shows the word TRY in large letters, to be held up when the All Blacks scored a try. The other side shows instructions for actions in the event of a try both by and against the All Blacks (in the style of airline advice cards for action during an emergency). Instructions advise against cheering with a loaded beer glass and forgetting to lower the seat before sitting down again after an exuberant jumping cheer. The advised response to a try against the All Blacks resembles the hunched presparation for a crash impact on an aeroplane. Quantity: 1 colour photo-mechanical print(s). Physical Description: Photolithograph on both sides of light card, 420 x 298 mm. Provenance: Donated by Mrs Winifred Lynch, Wellington, in 2008. This sign was used by spectators during a match at Twickenham on 6 November 2006, just after the revamp of the grounds. The All Blacks won the match. However, copies of the sign may have been used at several matches in England around that time.
