Time to offer some of the mountain of programmes which have been donated for the CL and BA auctions by the Dryland family.
Three programmes from three momentous cup games.
A. V Palace FA Cup Third Round 1968/9 A special souvenier programme for the big derby game watched by 32,334, the biggest Valley crowd for years. As well as the programme there are four original match reports/photos cut from the Sunday papers. Programme is in good condition but the white cover has some faint colour presumably from other programmes
Charlton won the replay 2 - 0 and so went on to play...
B V Arsenal FA Cup Fourth Round 1968/9. A huge turnout from Charlton fans (including an 8 year old Henry Irving at his first ever away game) among the 55K+ crowd including many who ended up on the Highbury North bank for some reason. Programme is in very good condition other than a small mark on the back page.
C v Man Utd Sixth Round 1994. 10,000 Addicks singing "things can only get better" at half time. It didn't but it was still a great day out. Programme in very good condition
