Another collection of wonderfully wacky team shots Through The Lens of Henk Blansjaar, a Dutchman that BTLM likes even more than Johan Neeskens or Ruud Krol. And they’re our favourite Dutch players ever!

Click on any of the images to open the gallery and read a little more about the stories behind the images where available. Our favourite picture in this particular set is the Helmondia ’55 squad posing with the town’s local dairy queen, a joyous riot of colour and camp.
