I've also loaded each photo from this batch onto a Facebook page which you can see here if you fancy a quick scroll through...

They don't all have a description written in, nor a price.

Website updated this morning. Over 200 more added, fairly London-centric this time as 2 large collections purchased locally, so lots of Fulham, Arsenal, West Ham and (cough) Chelsea some of which have starred on EBay and a few more are destined for that honour over the next few weeks.

Here's a small sample

80's Fulham (over 40 of those)



O's v Arsenal FAC 1972



Charlton v Port Vale 1936



Sunderland 1973



Batch also visible here on Facebook but without descriptions, prices etc

https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.889762604423770.1073741854.431574396909262&type=3

Have a browse on the website

Post subject: 10 years old - SPECIAL OFFER!!!
Reply with quote

My website is 10 years old this week. Some good programming to survive 10 whole years given all the changes in technology since then, January 2006. iPhones, Google Chrome, etc etc.

Anyway, to celebrate its 10th birthday, as of right now I am offering 10% discount on any order placed between now and next Sunday 10th January, at midnight, and also for any order in excess of £10 you can have FREE postage.


So, just the 7,112 original press photos to choose from. Please have a look to see if there's anything there just for you - and have 10% off on me.

Thanks to you all for your support and friendship over 10 years and also it's been nearly 3 years since I landed on FPC. Time really does fly.

And HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Hi All

I am having a new pc installed today. It's likely I'll lose my old email address book.

Can I please ask all my usual contacts to email me this evening sometime so that you are in my new address book?

Thanks in advance
Pete

Confused

You could copy and paste all your contacts into an email and send it to yourself? Then copy and paste it back in if you've lost it in the changeover?

Swamped as I was by all your emails, and thank you all, I regret to advise the installation of my new pc didn't happen. The expert I got round to help found my fibre broadband to be malfunctioning and very slow, so I took it up with my suppliers, Talk Talk. They agreed and promised to sort it out within 28 days as per their directive from Ofcom.

So I am using the old pc till then and am chugging along slower than Per Mertesacker in mud. And the money invested in a new pc might just have been a waste, although my old one is 6 years old.

1966 World Cup Squad - Special Offer!!!

To hi-jack another thread, and apologies for that, but if anyone's interested I have individual action &/or portrait photos of almost all of the original squad for sale on my website - including most of the actual 22.

These are the other 18 players who made up the original 40-man squad:-

Venables, Milne, Hollins, Baker, Temple, T Smith, P Thompson, Lawler, Reaney, Bridges, Osgood, Waiters, Pickering, G Harris, West, Newton, Kaye, Hinton

For an order today I would offer any FPC readers 10% off my listed price on ANY OF THE 40 PLAYERS IN THE SQUAD, any photo, action or portrait, plus free postage for an order for 3 or more.

You can find them here

www.petespicturepalace.co.uk/kick_off.htm

Please email (mention FPC) or PM me

Thank you in anticipation

My old website, Pete's Picture Palace, is being pensioned off. Written in 2005, and live on 4th January 2006, the warhorse has served me brilliantly in the face of new technology (iPhones, iPads, Google Chrome etc) all being invented in the mean time, so basically PPP has only worked properly on Internet Explorer on a desktop for about 5 years.

I have 6,800 photos on sale on the site today and am continuing to purchase at a rate of knots, despite disappointing days at auctions every so often.

Anyway, I am investing a small fortune on a new improved website which will be called - wait for it - Pete's Picture Palace !! I know people don't like change so my developers were intrigued when I said "Don't change much!" It will therefore be the same - but different! And much, much better. That's what my developers are promising.

All this will happen, if all goes to plan, on Friday 29th July, but before then I have a day at my developers (in Cheltenham) this coming Wednesday 20th. I have about 550 "new" photos to upload so they are the testing ground for the new technology, that's when I shall learn how to do it all - I'm not the best at all his new-fangled stuff so wish me luck!

And fingers crossed, Friday 29th will see the re-launch of Pete's Picture Palace Mark II.

And here are a few of the new arrivals:-

Wolves win League Cup, 1980



West Ham v Birmingham 1977



Spurs at Birmingham 1962



Real Madrid v Juventus EC q/f replay 1962



Mansfield Town 1968



Morecambe v York City, FA Cup 1st round, 2nd replay at Maine Road, 1966



Liverpool 1974



Forfar Athletic c 1992



Jackie Ashurst, Leeds, 1987. I think I agree.

Thanks Holtie - nor can I !!!

I meant to say, it's still "business as usual" on the old website until the big day, so 6800 press photos are still on sale.

Quite keen to move some so let's say for the next 7 days (ie until midnight Sunday 24th July) all orders get 10% off and if over £20 then free postage also.

Cheers!
