I have an album sheet with the autograph of a Frank Taylor. I am aware that the other signature on the page is Cliff Morgan.

Frank was the author of "The Day A Team Died" regarding Munich and he was the only sports journalist to survive the Munich air disaster.

Does any forum member have any memorabilia bearing the signature of Frank which can be compared with the attached to see if it is one and the same man or another Frank Taylor?

Thanks in anticipation.

Martino, can’t help with the Frank Taylor enquiry, but noticed The Goostrey Morris Dancers and Junior Dancers on this Witton Albion poster 1965. With you living in Goostrey , did you have any involvement with them in your youth? Dixie( can’t have been Dean , he never had a pony) and his pony speciality act sounds interesting . The 5 Nites Rhythm Group later found fame as The Grateful Dead . You’d think they would have got The Lawman’s name spelt correctly😃

Sorry I moved here in 1987 so before my time. No Morris Dancing team here these days.

Nonetheless an interesting poster.
