Not something I'd have a clue about, so I'd be interested to know about value of these. I'm guessing that as they're Leeds, that means that they would be worth more than your average reserve prog, but would reserves be worth less than 1st team progs?

Generally Leeds pre-war are more expensive to pick up than the average team....

Homes are extremely hard and can often over 300 for a standard issue, Leeds v Chelsea 36-37 went for over a grand quite recently.

Away's from the easier clubs can be relatively easy to pick up with a small percentage premium added to the average price for that team from the same era.
Although some of the harder clubs to find will no doubt increase the value dramatically.
Saying the above, Sheffield United v Leeds 35-36 FA Cup sold for around 220 on eBay last week and I thought the Sheffield clubs were one of the easier teams to find pre-war issues for.

I think reserves are generally not as expensive as first team fixtures but with the Leeds factor involved they can equate to a high price.

Would be interested to see other people's opinion on this, do reserve pre-war issues from your club demand the same price as a first team pre-war fixture?

I've never seen a pre-war reserve programme for Stevenage Town, in fact I haven't even seen a pre-war programme for Stevenage Town!

Nowadays we produce teamsheets for reserve + youth games, they usually go for a larger price on eBay than first team programmes, as they usually run out of teamsheet 15-20 mins before kick off.

Do you have any reserve/youth team sheets from games against Posh? Do you issue anything for your youth league games?

The majority of Posh reserves from the 1970s/1980s are rare and go for crazy money on eBay. Only recently a folded 1969/1970 Bournemouth & Boscombe Reserves v Peterborough Reserves sold for £114.00 on eBay.

No unfortunately I don't have anything from reserve/youth game against Posh.

From around 2000 onwards (roughly) we only issue teamsheets for reserve and FA Youth Cup games, I don't think we issue anything for normal youth games, I have always presumed they don't issue anything as the matches are played at our training ground and there is no warning given on the website before youth league matches.

Edit - You don't happen to know which games Posh have played against us (friendlies, reserves, youth cup) do you? As I don't have any reserves info and may be missing a couple of friendlies.
