Oldest International Away Programme For Your Club

[badhand]

I can offer a very small improvement on the current offering of Wellington (N.Z.) v Bristol Rovers, 25.5.74.

This game was the second game in New Zealand. There is a programme for the first, which was Canterbury (N.Z.) v Bristol Rovers, 22.5.74.

There are pictures of both on Jamie's (pastpirate) site.

As has been mentioned by Jamie, there are ealier matches, but I have never seen a programme for earlier games.

Hi All

After many attempts over the years, I've finally managed to get back onto the site. I've rejoined with a significant post to my old thread. Most LFC collectors will probably be aware of the emergence of Denmark Select v Liverpool May 1932.



Currently on Ebay, the high starting price has already been realised for what is now officially the oldest known LFC international away issue. I always suspected that there was something out there and that it would eventually surface. You just never know what's around the corner, a couple of years ago a St Etienne v LFC friendly was unearthed from 1956!

The list has now been updated to include this gem.
