Port Adelaide 1956 Premiership Mug

The Port Adelaide 1956 Premiers Mug is a commemorative piece featuring the official SANFL Grand Final team in restored colour by Petar Vasic of Past Colours. Created as part of the Port Adelaide SANFL collection, it celebrates a defining milestone in one of the club’s most dominant eras.

The 1956 SANFL Grand Final was contested at Adelaide Oval on Saturday 29 September. On that occasion, Port Adelaide defeated Norwood 14.11 (95) to 11.10 (76) before a crowd of 56,353 spectators. Consequently, the victory secured the club’s 17th premiership.

More significantly, the 1956 triumph marked three consecutive premierships. Accordingly, it confirmed that the momentum established in 1954 and strengthened in 1955 had become sustained dominance.

As a result, the 1956 season stands as the midpoint of the historic six-in-a-row sequence. Furthermore, it reinforced Port Adelaide’s position as the benchmark club of the SANFL era.

Ultimately, whether displayed as part of a growing collection or enjoyed as a functional keepsake, this commemorative mug offers a refined tribute to one of the club’s landmark Grand Final victories.
