Hello Everyone

Many Thanks for the kind words and you are correct Roy it is hard work scanning page after page and then getting together a whole group of items and maybe sometimes not uploading for weeks but building up a "back catalogue"

Also Tynie confirms my thoughts regarding the values-does not have to be expensive stuff, can be anything even if it is worth a few pence as my belief is that each item is a piece of a jigsaw puzzle that may well fit in with something similar years later so it gives a simple item some depth.

Match ticket-programme-newspaper clippings-odd press photo-badge-menu-railway handbill and before you know it there is a mini collection created and it could have been years in between finding this bits and bobs.

Of course people want to see the important items as well and that is ok but the strange thing is that the image I have the most views which is over 18,000 does not involve United but a match played at Old Trafford. https://flic.kr/p/6dV5h6


I have not uploaded too many new items of late but starting next week I intend to have a bit of a push.

Once again thank you for all the positive comments as this is what makes this forum what it is, live and let live with no more of those nasty comments.

Onwards and upwards now 993k short of the next million!

Leslie,
Fantastic collection and site, over 9 million views is incredible. I am at lust shy of 580,000 views of my Everton collection, don't suppose I will get anywhere near your numbers. As others have said, a great collection and more importantly a great collector, you have always been happy to help me when I have needed some info.
