It's 'Allan Wells's Parcel Tape' Circa 1985, and our conservation team are on stand by, ready to make the final adjustments to the climate controlled display case that will ensure no harm comes to the precious tape.
By all accounts it is a well preserved example of a late 20th century adhesive and will surely bring in large numbers of keen followers of athletics. Because its Allan Wells's tape and he was a runner.
