Everton's Optimum Magazine

[andy1966]

I have managed to get hold of a number of these magazines that Everton provide to their Shareholders.

There have been seven produced, I have four but would love to get hold of the others. Does anyone on here have copies?

Hi, I have the first seven editions, I am not sure any more were published after that.

Also I have all evertonians, thanks

Hi all,
I have managed to get 7 of the 8 produced, just missing issue 5.

A long shot I know, but if anyone has a copy they are willing to sell I would really appreciate it

Hi Andy. Have you managed to obtain issue number 5 yet? Have you come across any more for sale? I have around 3 or 4 in the garage which were given to me by a corporate season ticket holder but I would like to fill in my missing gaps.

Noo, I haven't got issue number 5. I do have a spare of one of them though. I will have a look.

If you are interested my collection is on my flickr account
All sorts, here programmes, books magazines etc

Nice collection-well laid out-

[andy1966]

Very kind, not as impressive as yours I think

Great collection that mate. I haven't used flickr before. Is there any way I can do a search in your collection? For example if I wanted to see a certain programme, can I search for it by typing something in? I'm not quite sure how it works.

well i do not think that is relevant, it is not a competition.

Besides i have a lot of non paper items that spread it out as i collect a wide variety so based on that alone it would be larger.

I started it off with a few choice items then as time moved on i decided to commit all i had to the site.

A lot of the modern items are comon but collectively they are slowly forming a picture covering all eras and aspects.

I have to admit it is a bore having to scan it all as it is but then doing the 80's, 90's ++ is a chore but that is what i chose so i do a few modern items then revert back to something older to break it up. The intention is to have a pictorial record that can be shared and also it is as you will agree to see the changes in the styles of the covers and of course the content also.

I have more to go on than i have put on and it has taken years to get this far-i am trying to make my site balanced not just to highlight one or a just a limited few decades but from the earliest item in 1886 to the latest in 2014 and slowly the picture builds up and gaps get filled in.

All great fun, laborious for sure as many of us will confirm, but then you sit back and see the labours and it is all worth it no matter how big or how few or how many items are on there,everyone's collection is individual just as we all are.

When all my programme collection was sold in 2000 i said never again!, stick to the memorabillia who was i kidding! it is in the blood for sure.
