Postponed Arsenal home programme against Leeds Utd 9/4/66. Very few seem to exist. Game was called off on the morning of the game due to waterlogged pitch. Apparently most of the programmes were shredded and only a few survived.

Hi Stanwick
Are you after a valuation? It isn't quite clear from the post. Usually fetches in good condition around the £30 mark.
Best wishes

I can confirm this is as Kenny says rocking horse poo. I am friendly with one of Arsenals top collectors and he values it at well into 4 figures, there are a few Arsenal rare postponed, one against Spurs and one against Everton which are both very rare but they do come around occasionally unlike the Leeds issue , definitely rocking horse poo, well into 4 figures he said

4 figures ? I'll give you £10.99 for it. It's great when these turn up. It looks a little match worn ? Won't matter still worth a fortune.

For those into tickets here is an unsed ticket for that original match

Me thinks someone in the auction trade sees this little lot as a bargain to be had!! Laughing

guilty as charged!

I know what estimate I would put it in my sale, , if it was on this site what would it fetch? would the seller rather get 100 % of the price on here, or 90% of the price obtained on ebay or a specialist auction house?

I know where I would put it

still it would be an interesting trial

There are no big punters on here for that programme

Auction is the way to go.

Nice one, stanwick1. Do you have the programme or just that picture of the cover?

And nice one goonerboy.

A couple of great pieces of ephemera.

J have just found this thread and it is the one I have referred to in my earlier posting this afternoon in respect of my request for advice on whether I should have restoration work carried out on the copy of this programme that I have recently purchased. It does appear from the above comments that the price I have paid seems to be about the mark for its condition.
