Anderson Alex Image 1 Heart of Midlothian 1935
£8.95 – £49.95
Description
Edinburgh born centre forward Alex Anderson began his football career with Murrayfield Amateurs from where he joined Scottish League amateur First Division club Queen’s Park in August 1932, for whom he made his Scottish League debut in a 4-3 defeat at Ayr United the following month. He scored 21 goals in 66 appearances for The Spiders over the next two seasons including a hat-trick in a 6-2 win at Ayr United in February 1934, and garnered several Scottish amateur international caps before moving to Heart of Midlothian in May 1934, where he turned professional.
Described as “well built, tall and a strong shot”, he remained with Hearts for the rest of the 1930’s until the outbreak of the Second World War effectively ended his career, although he continued to play wartime league football for both Hearts and East Fife during the War. Never a regular in the Hearts first eleven with the likes of Tommy Walker ahead of him, he scored 19 goals in 41 appearances for The Jambos, making his last peacetime appearance against former club Queen’s Park at Tynecastle in November 1937.
