Tytoninae Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 Does anybody know of collectors or resellers of old programmes who might be interested in taking copies from around 1991 to present? My dad has bought virtually every home programme between that time but is de-cluttering and looking to shift them all save for a handful of significant games. Not interested in getting rid of handfuls at a time - would rather shift them en masse. Cheers, Tytoninae Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Tytoninae Used to be a programme shop on Leppings Lane, walk past in every match but not sure if it's still open thinking about it. Not much help really.... Sorry I did try.

Mountain Owl Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 (edited) Doubt whether you'll find any takers. Ended up giving all my programmes for the same period for Free to a young lad. At least theyv'e now got a good home and the upstairs floorboards are recovering from the release of the abnormal weight.

Tytoninae Posted June 17, 2017 Author Share Posted June 17, 2017 Yep, have exchanged emails with the fella from the programme shop. Looks like they're destined for the paper bin. Funny looking at some from the 00's and not having a clue who the random loan players are on the cover... here's to better times! UTO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamworthowl Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 I had a collection going back to the 70s and got rid during a house move some time ago. I would recommend saving at least one per season (last match?) for a bit of reminiscing. I wish I had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owl-zat Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 Take them to a charity shop and I'm sure they can at least sell them for a useful cause rather than throwing them in the bin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jack12 Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 I would be interested in taking the 92 to 96 home programmes off you,if you have them all, price dependent obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lincs Owl Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 Your de-cluttering is why no-one wants them. Back in the fifties when I started saving progs, you could have a collection of, say 500, and they'd fit in a drawer. Todays efforts just take too much room up. Prog dealers generally only want pre 1960. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dumboldowl Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 I have about 1500 dating from 1960 to the present day, and will continue cluttering next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owl-zat Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 I know a few collectors that have stopped buying current programmes now even though they have nearly every post war issue home and away as well as pre-war. Programmes these days just aren't worth much apart from the odd one every now and again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TAOWL267 Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 After 1966 when there was a increase interest in football programme collecting became really popular. Consequently post 66 programmes are really not worth a lot apart from the odd one. I had loads that went to charity and others that got binned. Kept one from every season, every home / away against the blades and every semi final and final since 1946. Still makes for quite a collection but for instance I only bought three last year so it's not growing out of control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll be cherry-picking each season for, as others have suggested, last game, derbies, finals and semi-finals, play offs etc. in which case, there'll be no one complete season. Sorry.

Tytoninae Posted June 26, 2017 Author Share Posted June 26, 2017 If there's anyone still out there who's interested in buying the lot, there's 506 available, with the following quantities by season: 1990/91 5 1991/92 20 1992/93 24 1994/95 20 1995/96 16 1996/97 20 1997/98 20 1998/99 21 1999/00 18 2000/01 20 2001/02 23 2002/03 22 2003/04 26 2004/05 25 2005/06 22 2006/07 22 2007/08 24 2008/09 21 2009/10 22 2010/11 25 2011/12 24 2012/13 23 2013/14 24 2014/15 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
