Was over at my Dad's last night with him waxing lyrical about city sides from his youth (he's 64). He'd dug out a programme from the away fixture he attended at Southport on March 19th 1957, lineup was the standard 1-2-3-5 Bly Durham Harrison Davidson Feasey Collinson Cripsey Bulles Bradbury Clarke Stephens. Just wondered if anyone on here still has an older programme from a game they attended? Not a one up exercise, just made me curious! COYH
Not a game I attended but I bought one off ebay for my old man a few years ago which was his first game - probably around the same time, some time in the mid 50s anyway!
My dad has my copy of the programme from the match against man u the one at fer ark with the stupidly high attendance obviously i didnt attend it but i remember buying it when i was younger from a bloke who sold old programmes in a room in the west stand at the ground
ive managed to pick up some hull city programmes from the mid 50's (b4 my time may i add) and i have also 2 from 1949/50 season. in fair condition but slightly creased with writing on them. i do know that any pre-war(2nd) progs can go for over £50 at auction and anyone who has pre-1st world war programmes into 3 figures subject to game and condition. time to look in your uncles loft.
The earliest one's I have are the City V Chelsea games home and away in the cup 1965/66 season and a reply in the FA cup played at Fer Ark between Sunderland and Leeds, where a women came on the pitch and tried to hit Johnny Giles over the head with her hand bag.
I'm not expecting anything (because whenever I've asked before my only company has been tumble-weeds), but please could any of you with old programmes either scan and post any interesting articles from them on the Tiger's History thread, or just leave a post to tell us what it said.
i've a lot of programmes going back to the war, earliest Chelsea away 1925, is their anything in particular your after
you could well be sitting on a few quid with all pre-war (both I + II) programmes especially. worth keeping those especially very safe and dry.
Superb isnt it. What a tragedy beckinsale died at 32. They are timeless all those 70's comedies. Porridge, Rising Damp, Steptoe and Son, Likely Lads. Im checking for the Steptoe Xmas episode with Leonard rossiter as an escaped convict.
To be honest pt64 I would love to see anything and everything you can post. Anything pre WW2 would be brilliant but the later stuff also. Thanks in advance.
