John Cameron captained Tottenham Hotspur when they won the FA Cup in 1901. He later went on to manage the club. But his early career seems to be virtually unknown?

According to Wikipedia and the ...

Two headed sword being a Man U collector. One the one hand there seems plenty of material that keeps coming up for sale. Against that are the very high prices. Overall I think I prefer being a coll ...

You are probably too young to remember the Boys Own Exhibition - I think it was called that - held at Olympia - I think. To start with the name would have to go. But, it had everything boys collecte ...

Nice retirement fund!

Graham Budd is right in many respects. The Bryan Horsnell collection was due to the death of the owner. There are also several contributing factors. One a lot of clubs have ...

Mitchell's are a general small town auctioneers. So I guess the seller was someone clearing a house out. That's reasonable. But once again we see a collection of programmes from just after the war ...

Things certainly are changing. My street was close to the Leyton Orient ground. During the summer we used to go in and watch the players training. We also collected their autographs. They had time ...

I really don't see the point of these postings. The programme sold at auction, so that is the price. In the case of the Maltese programme there were 23 bids.

There is an argument that the seller ...

Looking on eBay for anything that might have something to do with Leyton FC - usual crap comes up week after week. Several programmes vastly overpriced.

Also noticed some modern autographs said to ...

If anyone can let me know which dealer wins the following lots in the forthcoming Graham Budd auction on September 6th/7th, I’d be most grateful, as there are programmes in both lots that I would be ...

This is exactly how panics start. Someone does not read the complete article. And they are no longer sending things to France and Germany.
Whatever we think of the EU they are not complete prats. ...

Chelsea collectors are in a way spoilt as you can get whole pre-WW1 seasons reprinted in bound volumes. I have a number of Chelsea v Leyton both original and reprints where someone has broken a set u ...

I assume you have seen the large number of Walthamstow Avenue pre-war h/a issues up for auction at Stacey's on 30th May. I wonder if they were from Len Llewellyn's collection.

I don't think this c ...

Just reviewed the forthcoming Stacey's Auction at the end of May.

There will always be a place for the stand alone exceptional items. But over the years I have noticed a trend to start lumping a n ...

I am getting too old to go to every game these days. Back in the sixties my dad and I would board the team coach and off we go to see every game home and away. I collected the programmes and have am ...

I too can remember clearly where I was when I first heard the news. I was eleven and playing football in the street, a stones throw from the Orient ground. My aunt came and told us.

Roll on twent ...

What about a snooker hall? They are all wearing waist coats.

Its incumbent on the rest of us to ensure our treasures don't end up at car boot fairs.

My dad supported Leyton from the twenties as his garden backed on to the Hare & Hounds Ground. He went t ...

Looking back now my earliest programme I kept was when I was ten. I still have a book I started recording the ones I had which amounted to 171. I now have 4000 all of the same club home/away. That ...

It has been said time and time again over the years that a programme is only worth what someone would pay from a catalogue. Or two persons in an auction.

A programme drops in value if the supply no ...
