West Bromwich Albion reserve progs 1950's

[Pete’s Picture Palace]

Hi All

Bit of a departure for me. I've been contacted by a relative of the old West Brom, Norwich, Wrexham, Palace, Leyton Orient & Charlton player Brian Whitehouse.

This relative has a programme for every league match Brian played in between about 1956 and 1968 when he retired. But he's after WBA home & away reserve programmes from about 1953 to about 1956 and a bit later, if Brian was in the WBA line-up, the later ones are harder to track because he was in and out of the first team at the end of the decade, hence he moved to Norwich.

He says there are about 150 programmes in that period and he has about half of them - he's sending me a list of the ones he needs.

So does anyone have any WBA reserve progs in that period that they are interested in selling? Please let me know - and in a few days I should have his wants list.

This chap is computer illiterate with no access to emails, the net, etc. I am acting on his behalf, I don't want to make a penny out of it.

Thanks in anticipation

He's not welcome on here by the looks of it but Barry is the man to try.

Fine by me. Thanks.

Finally got the list of WBA programmes needed, reserve team, home & away, from 1954 to 1960. If anyone has any of these, please contact me and I will give you the buyer's details. Thank you.

Hi Pete

I have the 2 involving MU but not as spares, would be willing to scan the pages and send to whoever, just let me know.



Interestingly and although not required the MU v WBA Res in 1955-6 United won 8-0 and Robert Charlton scored 6 and United missed a penalty!. [I wonder if Charlton progressed at all, so many show promise then fade away]

Thanks Leslie, I guess he'd like to see a scan as I very much doubt he'll see an original, I know you never know but it would be a nice touch.

It would need to be posted to him though as he isn't online. Drop me an email if you'd like to do that please, and I'll give you his address.

Cheers!
