This is the first of two posts in our Dundee Vintage series featuring a selection of striking player and team imagery from some of the most successful years in the Dens Park club’s history. Our pictures span Dundee’s three League Cup wins – two in the early 1950s and the other in 1973 – as well, of course, as that solitary Scottish title won in 1962 under the stewardship of Bob Shankly.
