I have just found these two signatures in a programme that I was about to list on Ebay.
It's from Huddersfield v Arsenal in 1949.

I think the one on the left could be Ian McPherson, but would like clarification if possible.
The one on the right, I have no idea.

Any help gratefully received.

They look like Tom Whittaker and Jimmy Milne who were Arsenal manager & trainer around that time.
