I thought it was Red posting for a moment.

The Inter League game went for £611 at Christies in 2000 as per below

It didn't appear to sell at Sporting Gold in 2006 as per below

I saw it go for approx £500 at Methuselah circa 2007 so I guess you can make your own estimate from that info. The Boro v Sunderland prog between £350-£400.

If they don't sell at the London fair, then there appears to be a market for them at car boot sales.

Thanks for the info Rocky I dont envy you collecting Middlebrough even when I did the Newcastle + Durham Fairs in the past no dealers had any old Boro.. Cheers
