Stamford Bridge Stadium, 31st August 1946
The queue for the turnstiles at Stamford Bridge, for Chelsea's first game of the 1946/7 season, against Bolton Wanderers.
This view is looking out towards the main entrance and the Fulham Road. The crowd, on an evidently wet day, was 61,000. The advertisements are for greyhound racing, something called roller speedway at Harringay Arena and for trains from Walham Green (Fulham Broadway, see below).
