    Priceless as it's probably the only one, so by definition a signed picture of the great Spurs double winning side is worth more than the current Arsenal, Chelsea, Man C and Man U squads combined. There is a God.

    This one's 200 quid. But it's only signed by seven of them and I'm assuming it's a contemporary reprint. I'm also guessing that those players still alive sign a few of these as there was also one on Amazon (but it was "out of stock").

    I'd say your neighbour's is different because it's from the time and has all the players. More importantly it's something he did himself and has had hold of for fifty years. I reckon it's gonna be worth a lot more to him than to anyone else. Almost certainly worth more to him than the couple of hundred quid he might get.

    My old autograph book is hanging by a thread!I used it in 1953-4 as a kid.A couple of Spurs players refused to sign.
    I asked Alf Ramsey if he would wish me "best wishes".He looked me straight in the eyes and said "I'll sign my name!"
    My prize signature was my,then,hero George Robb.He looked at me with a grin "Is that a good one?"
    Ihad pasted a player picture of Arthur Rowe in that book.When he saw it,he was taken aback."Wow son!That was a long time ago!" and he signed it.
    I remember lining up at the old CO Op in the Tottenham High Road to get Stanley Matthews autograph when he played with Blackpool.I think he was advertising his football boots.(I preferred Tom Finney's boots!)
