New Zealand Rugby League
Museum
The New Zealand Rugby League Museum
was opened at Rugby League House, 7 Beasley Avenue, Penrose,
Auckland in December 2007 and extended in late 2010.
It showcases items such as team and individual photos dating from
1907 through to today; scrapbooks of newspaper clippings; match and
test programs; trophies, and representative caps and jerseys - the
earliest of which dates from 1927.
The collection also includes the original signed contract for the
1907 All Golds, the first ever rugby league team to tour
internationally.
*** Please note that the Rugby
League World Cup is not in the Museum at present. It is in the UK
promoting the upcoming RLWC2013.
