Latest update: Saturday 17th October, 2009
It's been a really lean time this last four or five weeks trying to find new cigarette and trade cards and, as a result, I have very little to add here. Even the card fairs and catalogues are not throwing up anything new and eBay has only the usual cheap or common cards. So I have continued to expand sideways by buying postcards, press photos and other more unusual items. The latest of these is a cartoon cut from the pages of 'The Boys' Realm' in 1924, which previews a game at Leeds Road against Aston Villa, a matter of weeks before Town were to claim the League Title for the very first time.
I have also bought several more Turton cards, including a couple of team photographs and autographed studio portraits of George Richardson and Fred Bullock, together with unsigned ones of David Steele and Alec Jackson. As I already had copies of these cards up on the website, you won't notice a change there!
New press photographs include one of Alec Jackson at Leeds Road standing arms folded with an extremely cheeky grin on his face. It's a lovely postcard-sized item and was well worth the price.
And so perhaps now is a good time to make an appeal. I am sure that some people who visit this site or who are reading this page now, will have at least one card that is not shown here; please get in touch - my email address is scattered around the site - and we can talk terms. I have a whole page of WANTED items, although I'm not sure just exactly how many of the cards listed there ever existed! Now is YOUR chance to contribute to the site; I will credit you if wish or you can remain anonymous.
Finally, I still have one or two books left, so if you're looking for a birthday present for that Town fan in your life, email me through the MY BOOK page and I'll sort one out for you; this way I get all of the cash instead of losing out to the club or eBay.
Until the next update, enjoy the site, buy the book, and keep looking for those missing cards!
Oh, and if you're a first-time visitor, please sign my guestbook!
