Description: | In 1939, Wolverhampton Wanderers qualified for the FA Cup Final at Wembley. This badge was made as a commemorative souvenir of the event. It is made of black and gold enamel and shows a wolf head under the name "Wolves". The team was not successful on this occasion, being beaten by Portsmouth by four goals to one. However, it was an historic match as, due to the Second World War, the FA Cup Final was not played again until 1946.
