A CATALOGUE
OF
SECONDHAND FOOTBALL BOOKS
(Correct at 31.8.2010)

I intend to publish a catalogue in early September, October, November & December 2010. Advise me if you wish NOT to receive it. Please forward it to your friends. If you receive it from a friend, drop me a line to ask to be added to my mailing list. If there is a particular book you are looking for, I will gladly make note of it and advise you if I have it before I add it to the catalogue. The catalogue is updated daily with newly-acquired books and by sold items being deleted. Be patient with my answerphone - a it takes a while for my voice to come on. It is NOT a fax machine.

Except where stated, all the items in this catalogue are secondhand books in good condition.

Unless stated to be a Paperback (pbk),or a pamphlet, the book is a hardback. In many cases the number of pages (pp) is shown . Most are illustrated ( illus) Many are in Very Good (VG) condition. Many have a dustwrapper (dw). Minor faults, such as a corner cut off the free endpaper/ flyleaf or the price clipped from the dustwrapper ,or showing a previous owner’s details, are ignored.
SBC = Soccer Book Club or Sportsman’s Book Club
Please check availability before ordering. Postage is extra to the price shown, though some marked ‘Lightweight’(L/w) will be sent free of postage charge. To simplify postage charges, and so that the customer will know in advance what the postage charge will be, I propose to charge £3 for the first book and £5 for two or more. No parcel will cost more than £5. Payment with order is required. This can either be by cheque, Paypal or electronic transfer, but not by credit/debit card .

Any item found to be poorer than described may be returned and I will refund the cost of the item and the cost of postage incurred. ‘My Integrity is Your Guarantee’ is my trading motto. I have been a secondhand bookseller since 1969.

[Museum de Latique]

Some interesting prices - not many bargains to be had

[burnley_collector]

ah, I got this e-mail yesterday too - I wondered how he'd got my e-mail address - now I know - I must have given it to him at the Preston fair!

[treble99]

that's the problem with fairs and part of the reason they are almost dead except for the big ones in London and the Christmas one at Manchester.
there are more and more people walking round with bags who are really dealers but find it not worthwhile financially to get a stall.
equally there are more and more collectors who are also dealers who don't realise it who are still trying to find a £10 item in the £1 box.
if they find this item(and it is getting harder to find as the few genuine dealers who are not in denial and who still try to sell at fairs,know more or less exactly what they have),then the buyers offer it on forums like this for £10 and everybody jumps on them and says it is too expensive.

i think it might be interesting to get people's opinions on why programme fairs have more or less failed.
i will start.
it might be a little controversial but it is my honest opinion.

as an old established collector of Manchester united programmes,caps,shirts,menus,brochures and a lot more i feel i can express a solid opinion on this front.

when i started collecting about 35 years ago there was a decent programme fair in the North West every Sunday.
from Keith Ennion at Stretford Sports Centre to Ruth Crawshaw at Bolton.there was Wigan and Crewe and David Howgate at Southport which usualy involved a walk down the front and a fourpenny cornet with a flake.***i will never forget David's pricing policy.a big coloured sticker with amounts like 4 shillings and tuppence.

they all had one thing in common.
there were crap programmes and there were quality programmes and there was something for everybody.
you took your pound or you took your hundred pounds and you got value.
the dealers were the dealers and the collectors were the collectors.

the dealers spent the time running round.putting ads in papers and viewing and buying collections.they knew who would buy the expensive items and they knew who had a lesser pocket and worked and offered accordingly.

some of the bigger collectors had their fields to themselves and that was how they liked it.

as time has passed and the internet,especially ebay,has come into it's own the market place has changed.
the dealers as i knew them find it much harder to find "the items from the loft"
every unknown item goes on ebay and every collector,no matter how much experience,becomes a dealer.they pass opinions on value often with limited experience.
a lot don't even realise they have become dealers as they try to buy stuff on ebay cheap.
they are absolutely amazed at the prices reached in major auction houses such as Sotheby's and Sportingold.
the comments are passed such as "not worth it" or "i wouldn't pay that"
very often that is another way of saying they can't afford it(no shame-everybody has a level) or i can't buy that(and be able to make a profit-ie a dealer)

the new market place has found old collectors such as Chris Williams(Sportingold)-Roy Connor-Phil Noble(manchester city)-Dave Alexander(West Ham) to name but a few who now use their experience and cash to take over from the small time dealers who used to stand at fairs.
the fair has been replaced,more or less,by the auction room

the only bargains to be had are now an odd one at one of the struggling fairs if somebody walks off the street with a brown bag or you attend an auction where the auctioneer(such as Bonhams in Chester) doesn't know a Victorian Cup Final from a Stoke 1960's at the Victoria ground.
As every full time dealer spends days sitting cross legged on the floor looking at every programme and then hiding any quality small or single sheet programmes inside some football league review it is difficult to get a bargain

i could go on but that's enough from an old fool who still loves this as a hobby.

let's be having you or at least let's be having your opinions.

[Auchinleckian]

You've hit the nail right on the head, albeit I still believe there is still room for fairs - and I do three or four a year myself in the north west of England. I can't get the collections you refer to any more, so adapt to what's there. To me though, a fair's much more than trying to make a few bob, it's about meeting the gnarled old eccentrics like myself and having a good crack with them.
Used to do Southport until it shut - great memories. I see Ruth hasn't had a fair this year, so assume she's not doing them any more? Have had a stall there for the last few years. Love meeting the same folk who traipse around from fair to fair and there's a genuine joy for both of us when they (inevitably) find something they want on my stall.
I don't cater for the masses, and only take what I consider to be saleable programmes, there's no point in everyone chasing the same dollar. Majority of my stock is pre 1970, so it is the older collector who buys from me. I see no point in doing current season, too much work for too little return.
Love the fairs and hope they continue, but think there's room somewhere for a meeting of the old and new with something like a collector's convention on a weekend centrally somewhere?

Some very good points treble99, (picked out some very relevant one's in my opinion) I don't think you're being controversial, I think you're talking a lot of sense.

However, and not wishing to sound a complete thicko (there's a good chance) what exactly is the definition of a dealer?

You stated: "every collector,no matter how much experience,becomes a dealer.they pass opinions on value often with limited experience."

I have sold the odd programme(s), but does that make me a dealer, or a bloke trying to move some unwanted programmes on? Last year, I bought a batch of various 70's programmes from many different teams, I'll be honest, I was testing out the online bidding at some auction, I was bidding blind (no idea what was in there), but I thought there might be some interest for my little un's one programme per club collection.
I kept them all but I sold one a few months later, does this make me a dealer? After all, if I went down to our local auction house and bought a box of three antique vases, two of which I wanted for the sideboard, but I decided I didn't like the other and chose to sell it at a later date, would this make me an antiques dealer or some bloke trying to sell an unwanted vase?

I would class myself as a collector, I have never bought a programme(s) from ebay, a fair, auction or individual with the intention of selling it later to make a profit. After all, 'it's a hobby'.
A sentiment I fully echo.

In reference to programme fairs, I have to say whilst i agree with what you say, I have to say I enjoy going to them.

Over the past 12 months I've been to Lincoln, Leeds, Pudsey, Stafford, Stoke, Wolves, Leicester and of course, Sheffield.

For what I've bought, usually the odd programme, a few teamsheets and a handful of tickets it's probably not been worth my while, what with petrol and food etc but you do get to see programmes up close and you do get to meet some nice guys who in turn can help you with your collection, like our own Auchinleckian (some great northern intermediate programmes, thanks again), Alan from ab programmes on here, Kevin Weatherley and Richard (tcno10) who's been fantastic just to name a few, and generally they are interesting days out.

I'm going to try and answer the difference between a collector and a dealer in its rawest sense. I am a dealer Ie I earn my living through the buying and selling of football programmes/memorabilia - and believe me its a very tough living. That's one of the reasons I take a stall at the vast majority of fairs Eg Pudsey. That's a 500 mile round trip for me ( a lot of petrol), possibly an overnight stay as I live in Bushey, nr Watford a nd on top of that the cost of a stall etc. That's probably an outlay of close to £200 and whats the first question somebody asks when they see a programme or item I have for sale for £15 (or so) ? will you do it for £10. Not all stallholders do it for a living and the ones that dont will probably sell it for about £7.50 ish. I like to think that I offer a fair price for my stock. My main beef is that I am NOT a supplier for people to take the mickey. Once I have sold a programme I am happy, what happens to it afterwards is not my business but please dont say to me I dont think I can make a profit. Rant over, Alan B, www.abfootballprogrammes.com

[treble99]

great replies so let's move on.
a dealer is, as Alan says, somebody who buys to sell.
he may be a collector in his own right such as Leonard Evans at Arsenal but his priority with his dealers hat on is to make a living.
they put many hours in sourcing the items,they usually use vast amounts of experience accumulated over many years.
they use a large amount of cash to tie up in stock.
they use a large amount of time to attend programme fairs and as such deserve a lot more profit than i am led to believe they probably do at the moment but a lot of that is probably down to the current economic climate as much as anything.
also many,if not all, of the dealers seem to find a genuine friendship in meeting again the old faces that inevitably attend the fairs over and over.

a collector is somebody who's primary role is to collect whatever his passion is.
at most levels of collecting he knows what he can anticipate to pay for a particular programme but equally he knows he will pay a bit more(sometimes a lot more) than he anticipates to finally get that programme or similiar that he has been needing for many years.
he will occasionally have to buy a "parcel" of items to get just one.
he will sell on the surplus where he can.
that is a collector.

a dealer in denial is a person who claims to be a collector but will actually only look to buy something that he can sell on immediately.he will look to buy 10 items for say £25 and sell immediately 8 of them for £40 and keep the other 2 in his collection.
he wouldn't buy the 10 if he could not place the other 8 immediately.

changing direction slightly after 35 years i still look forward to a programme fair even though i am 99.999% i will find nothing that i still need.
i love the friendship and the banter and the buzz.
i genunly look forward to a fair even now
