Its World Cup fever as the teams line up - every bit as much as it will be for
Its World Cup fever as the teams line up - every bit as much as it will be for tonights England-West Germany clash. And if the 6, 750 individual spectators plus 200 police, ambulance, camera crew, photographers, ball boys and VIPs of Carl Pownalls amazing miniature stadium are slightly overshadowed by the statistics of Turins Stadio Nuovo Communale, it still leads in other ways. For Italy were newly-crowned World Cup champions when 35-year-old Mr Pownall, of Newsome, started to build his masterpiece - over eight years and two world cup competitions ago. And, although it still is not complete, the 5ft by 4ft chipboard stadium is probably worth £ 4, 000, he says. Each Subbuteo figure has been hand painted with two coats of paint by Mr Pownall, who is a piece warehouseman at Crowthers Cloth, Milnsbridge. The next stage is to build VIP boxes under the stadiums roof and floodlights. " I have always been interested in football - I m just a big kid really", said Mr Pownall, who plays all the major soccer competitions on his hand built ground. 27th June 1990

23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
It's World Cup fever as the teams line up - every bit as much as it will be for tonight's England-West Germany clash. And if the 6,750 individual spectators plus 200 police, ambulance, camera crew, photographers, ball boys and VIPs of Carl Pownall's amazing miniature stadium are slightly overshadowed by the statistics of Turin's Stadio Nuovo Communale, it still leads in other ways. For Italy were newly-crowned World Cup champions when 35-year-old Mr. Pownall of Newsome started to build his masterpiece - over eight years and two World Cup competitions ago. And although it still is not complete, the 5ft by 4ft chipboard stadium is probably worth £4,000 according to him. Each Subbuteo figure has been hand-painted with two coats of paint by Mr. Pownall himself who works as a warehouseman at Crowthers Cloth in Milnsbridge. The next stage is to build VIP boxes under the stadium's roof and floodlights.
