Currently for sale on ebay. Anybody shed any light on this being an original or a pirate?

It is not your typical Bohs issue from the period but the only known issue for the game.

An experienced Irish collector many many years ago made enquiries and was told Bohs had the FA Cup holders visiting and didn't have time to produce their normal programme so an emergency four page issue was produced. It seems plausible but does look more like a pirate.

I have it in my collection as an official programme and happy with that.

However I reckon it is worth several multiples of the current ebay price. I don't think the buyer will be this side of the Irish Sea though.
