[Seasider9601]

Not in the best of conditions (as you would expect !) but mega rare nonetheless.

Worth a punt at £2.50 starting price. IMO would expect that to go for about £30.00.

Doubt it would have any value to a collector but as a piece of club history it's priceless.

Does anyone know if the club holds on to any back issues of the match day programme? I wonder how many programmes from this era have survived the years.

Testimonial one here must be worth 10p

27 days to go - they're not in a rush to sell that one !!

A good friend of mine called Jim Kirton (RIP Jim) used to have a cracking programme shop at Boundary Park, Oldham and I remember purchasing one of these from him many years ago now.

I was quite overjoyed at the time to find an old single sheet Morecambe Reserves programme in the Oldham Athletic Programme Shop !!!

If anyone comes across a batch of Morecambe programmes from 1963 to 1968 for sale can they PM me. I posted them to a collector and they were stolen while in the care of Royal Mail. All he received was an empty envelope

Perhaps if it IS one of our own who win this item, they could perhaps review it in depth for Sean's Shrimp Scene ??

Maybe we can get another 200 exclusives tonight

[Seasider9601]

FORTY SEVEN quid this went for in the end !!!!!!!!!!

I like the last paragraph on the Club Notes Mark about "The Visitor's mistake" .............. !!

Yeah, some would say nothing changes. Having put 46 quid down at 5 pm I was relieved to find I had lost by 6pm . Would have been a cool momento though.

Maybe the sellers bidder thought he had got a live one and I would stop at nothing to get it

It does happen!

[mrpotatohead]

so you would have shelled out 46 quid marky no 1

are you bored and cash rich

total waste of money

Notice the town crest used as the club badge?

[captain sparkle]

I used a selection of these, from the same season, to get my collectors badge, when i was in da cubs! presented them in a wooden case, with a cellophane window, very fancy. I was awarded the badge, but never actually received it!!
Shrimper, do you remember?
that year, 5th cubs, woodlands drive, i'm sure you were there!!

[mrpotatohead]

wow, thats a damn fine badge, damn fine, yeah

I am pleased to say it is one of our own that bought it. I got a look at it tonight for the bargain price of 50p
He just wished he had known it was me that bumped his bid up somewhat
