norton woodseats v pegasus 1960

[dangerman]

today at the Sheffield auction gallery they had a Norton woodseats v Pegasus 1960 fa amateur cup 2nd round single sheet programme and was estimated at 20-30 but went for about £1000 is this the right price or not. http://www.the-saleroom.com/en.....c400d39072

I thought it went for £2,100 ??

According to their website now it was £2100.

Wow, so there were at least two people willing to pay a couple of grand for it!

Would anyone like to guess what makes it so sought after? Is one of the clubs really hard to collect or was it a historic game for some reason?

Was Peter Bonetti playing?

Pegasus played in Oxford before folding, it was more than likely the two Headington/Oxford collectors going head to head again

The Pegasus v Norton Woodseats 1960 programme was certainly a surprising price - makes me wonder if the purchaser might be interesred in a single sheet FA Amateur Cup 2nd rnd 2nd replay at Sheffield Wednesday on Wed 11 Feb 1959 between Pegasus v Bishop Auckland?
If so, I have a programme in good condition that they would be quite welome to for much less than they paid for the other one.

I listened to that part of the auction as I was interested in the same programme, and was going to bid. I was totally gobsmacked at the price for a rough typed single sheet Amateur Cup match !!

I have the single sheet for the round before (Norton Woodseats v Bishop Auckland) which is the same typed format as the Pegasus one. I was hoping that the two bidders were Norton Woodseats collectors - but somehow I have the same feeling that they were bidding because of Pegasus not because of a small amateur Sheffield club !!!

Oh well - I will put that cruise on hold and keep the single sheet tucked up in my non-league collection - it is one of my favourites so more than happy to keep it !!

Hi Barnsley

I sent you an email via Flickr yesterday and also a PM-can you get back to me after you have read the contents please to [email protected]

Thanks

Home and away Pegasus programmes in early rounds of the Amateur Cup and other competitions are highly collectable. There was a thread on the club a few years back...

Thanks for replies. Woodseats has to be one of the best names ever.
