Smiths printed a programme for the Burnley v. Liverpool FA Cup Final in 1914! I was offered it for £100 in 1981 and couldn't afford it! Regrets, I've had a few.... Crying or Very sad

That's reminded me where I've seen a W.H.Smiths programme before. 1913 FA Cup final - I can't work out how to post an image or I'd stick a scan up.

Wrong kind of Football I know, but when I was in England one year in 1994 I bought a UK version of the American Football SuperBowl Programme at W.H. Smiths. Since I live in the USA, I didn't even realise that there was a separate UK version. The cover was the same except for the price - $10 in the USA, £3.95 in the UK.
The barcode was different and the UK version had fewer pages.

I saw a copy in WHS in Stratford-upon-Avon. The barcode was on the BACK cover. Can't say I noticed any details on printing etc but IIRC looks just like the copy I got at Wembley.

Really annoyed, bought a programme from eBay which shows the barcode not present on the programme but the one he has sent me has the barcode on!
