Abstract
Wales cap presented to wing Terry Morgan of London Welsh and later of Swansea RFC. Morgan was first capped in 1902 against England at Blackheath while he was a Llwynypia player . This cap may have been a trial cap not fully marked up or may refer to the 1901-02 season. The reason for 1901 on the peak is not confirmed. Morgan joined Swansea in 1908 when he moved to the Sketty area of the town to practice as a doctor. He presented the cap to the Swansea club.
