Old Programmes and other memorabila

Recommended Posts

Posted

The only one I've kept is a program from 1989 (i think) where i got all the signatures of the players and Brian Hamilton. Not that I remember much as I was only 10 but the likes of Alan Smith are all on there.

I was thinking of selling mine. I have loads dating back to the 90's. Judging by the comments they have no re-sale value. I no longer want them so I guess the dump is where they'll be heading.

Taking pride of place on the landing the slightly capacity stretched bookcase!

Contains:-

Programmes in binders and others in bags awaiting binding, Dvds, videos, fanzines, books, odds n sods, china duck in city kit and bobble hat??? framed photos of mainly O'Neill era squad, cuddly toy (list in Bruce Forsyth voice) all topped off with framed print of king Jari of Rantanen land,(if a pro footballer needs shorts specially made because his arse is so big it gives hope to us all). Behind the bookcase are larger programmes, a home made Dennis Wise dartboard and some fluff.

As is fairly customary with collectable items, the value is determined by supply, demand and scarcity. I had boxes of programmes and various items of memorabilia sitting in the loft and to all intents and purposes forgotten about.

 

Until one day, I brought it all down to show a friend, also an out-and-out City fan, who remarked on the potential value of my collection. So I made an inventory of everything and contacted Dan Davies at Bonham’s.

 

What my friend had said was proving to be correct . Examples:– an absolutely non-mint single sheet from the 1964 Stoke v City League Cup Final 1st leg – could make £250 min at auction! Leicester v Chelsea, final in 1965, good condition should be again £250+ for the Leicester prog. If I had the Chelsea prog, that would only attract about £70. So I bought it on E-bay for £17. 1949 Cup Final? You are looking at hundreds. I bought one on E-bay for about £80.

 

In all, I was told that if I put the whole lot item by item into auction, I could and should be looking at £4000+ and that was a few years ago. Now when I pass on from this Earth to the great football stadium in the sky (formerly known as Filbert Street), my daughters would I am quite have no hesitation in donating my collection to Stockport MBC’s Thursday morning paper recycling service.

 

To counter this, John Hutchinson has digitally photographed most of what I have and this is to be included in the new on-line museum that is being created with De Monfort University and I would hope that after my demise, the whole collection may be given on loan to the Club but ownership remains in the family.

 

So be very careful of what you are throwing away because it may represent the equivalent of a substantial amount of cash. To give you an idea of some of current values – and bargains!!!! Check it out on E-bay.

I'm not encouraging selling them coz I don't but the ones that fetch a few quid are usually the ones where a legend has made his debut against us or someone was on the bench. A guy at work collects them and bought one with George bests debut for about £100 lol. Hang on to um boys
