Help please.

I see a copy of this sold in December 2017 and looks distinctly white in appearance!
My copy is red, or deep pink with red print.
Does that make sense, 2 colour of the same programme were available on match day?
Thanks in anticipation.

Con,

Hi - yes there were two different copies for this match. I am told this was due to paper shortages after the war. Here are the two different programmes. The "red/pink" paper issue being the rarer of the two.




This was the third (consecutive) instance of Liverpool using this method in 47/8 - the two previous home games featured the same two paper colours - "red/pink" (though seems to be different shades of this colour for each match) and white. The games included Charlton Athletic (on New Year's Day) and 3rd January against Stoke City. Again the "red/pink" issue is the rarer of the two programmes.

Hope that helps,

Andy

Andy,

Many thanks for taking the time to respond, I was beginning to think one must be a pirate copy.

Thanks again.

Con
