Just back from a quick trip to southern China and found this in a back street stall in Suzhou, a large industrial city 60k NW of Shanghai.

My guess it is a commemorative cup for the 95 flag with Ratts, Kouta, Ang, Fraser, SOS, Ratts and Sexton - Carlton's Finest indeed!.

It's amazing what you find and where. A couple of years ago I found a Captain Carlton kite at a kite shop behind Tianenman Square.

What other strange places have others found "Something Carlton"?

P.S. Thanks Camel for the image posting

Taff, I reckon you should send this in to InsideCarlton, you know for that bit at the back where people in Carlton gear get their pics taken all over the place … which reminds me. ;)

Maybe there is a simmering Carlton support base in China? 1 billion chinese Carlton members would be sure to help out out financial problems!!! :)
