Usually it is a ticket or a programme in the main that seems to turn up, sometimes an occasional newspaper[like the over priced ones on ebay at the moment] but very rarely there is an item such as this:

Unlike the same item that appeared at auction some years ago which became involved in some furore due to the vendors relation having "removed" it from the wreckage at the time, this particular item was from a survivor and who passed it on to a friend some years later who eventually decided he wanted to exchange it for something else and has lost the other coffee pot and cup over time, that is where I obtained it from.

Another interesting item!
What happened re the other one that went to auction? I don't know the story. Thanks again. _________________ Not Forgotten; Allwright, Greechan, Hagan, Kennedy, Littler, Purver, Robotham, Saunders, Shields |

It was sold and ended up in the Priory Collection owned by Nigel Wray.
I will scan an image from his book and post it tonight.

Thanks.
Was there more about how it was 'obtained' though? Is the piece 'tainted' in your eyes?
As it was either one of the players who died on that day or later, or it was someone who survived and didn't get back all that they should've. That's a little sad IMO. Should it have been sold? Surely it was theft?
Anyway, a nice museum item and good to read the back ground stories to these items on your website. _________________ Not Forgotten; Allwright, Greechan, Hagan, Kennedy, Littler, Purver, Robotham, Saunders, Shields |
