Help from the older guys required

I'm hoping to get some help with the towel in the pic below please guys. We found this amongst some of my grandmothers stuff when we were moving her into a nursing home - she's still kicking in her 90's & still a Parra fan. She's asking who it is meant to be depicted on the towel because she can't remember who it is. I'm 50 & it's before my time so I thought here's the best place to ask. It might not be depicting anyone at all but does anyone have any ideas? I thought maybe Ken or Dick Thornett but she reckons it's not. Appreciate an ID if there is one to be made.

  • That is awesome. Frame it. 
    (I reckon it's Ken Thornett.  Just a guess)

  • Looks like Ken Thornett but there are two grandstands? It's fantastic.

    • I don't think it is anyone in particular and probably just a caricature of "a" footballer, The football carry is wrong. 

      NB It couldn't be Ken because he had balls like an elephant, that one has camel toe! lol

  • could it be just a generic person? like if there was a Bulldogs one it might have same face but different colours 

  • Probably just a generic caricature. But if it's supposed to be anyone it's The Mayor.

  • Definately the late great Arch Brown , spitting image.

    • Actually I thought Archie as well Seth! explains the camel toe as well.....hmmm maybe Mary Foord .....sorry Slugg, I know he was a mate of yours!

  • Its in good condition Mat. I like the historical aboriginal content in it as well.

    • Looks like a prototype for our alternate white jerseys.

"yeah thanks guys, I was surprised, i just don't see him ball playing like a walker, Hopgood, DeBellin, etc. That surprised me. Mind you none are as good as Walker at it, from lock."

"Not a fan at lock, he runs a good line and makes a good mobile prop, but I've never seen him play lock, so who knows?"

"I agree but from my understanding he has only trained at fullback for the past 2 years so not sure if the club are considering to explore his utlity value."
