Saw it on ebay 2 and a half years ago. Had to go out before the auction ended so put a bid of £300 in and went out. All evening I was in a panic because I really didn't have that sort of money. Mainly due to the fact I would have needed a divorce lawyer if the wife ever found out. Anyway, came home and was over the moon to find the final price ended up at £78. What's it worth now? Don't really care I will never sell it.

I seem to have noticed that of all clubs Seff Weds seem to have very few buyers on ebay. With the fact that they have produced progs for longer than most clubs you can get some very good deals, if your club played them a long time ago keep an eye ebay for them.

Everton vs Liverpool - Football League War Match - 9th October 1943.

The only programmes pre 1960 I am interested in are Everton vs Liverpool programmes home or away, any competition and they normally cost a few quid so I don't have many just yet.
