We have found 1000s of photographs going back to pre-WW2 while sorting out boxes at the museum.

We also found some slides which CAFC999 has added to drop box.

Lots of photos of the construction and a few of the team training on the pitch for the first time.imageimageimage

    Yep. Last saw him serving behind the bar at Welling a few years back before the annual pre season friendly. Carrying a fair bit of timber and moaning about Curbs, tsk, tsk.

    He was a hero at Welling United until he broke his leg at Merthyr, never the same when he came back

    Are there many Selhurst pics? I used to be a ball boy, Tom Morris and others were always snapping away.

    Need to sort them all as there are just boxes and boxes of photos.

    Lots of black and white press shots of games in the 40s 50s 60s. Lots of player pics from 80s

    Poyet with his barnet cut since joining West Ham, looks a bit like Scott Minto methinks.

    80's was definitely my favourite era in football terms. Kits were quality, pitches pure mud, only 1 sub, bad hair styles etc, etc. proper football.

    So I'll certainly keep an eye out for the 80's pictures.

    I need to ask CAFC999 but yes.

    I do not have a problem but I will need to clear some items from my drop box first and then require email addresses.

    I also have some more photos that a rather kind and long suffering fan gave me of the ground which I will aim to put in the drop box when I get back to work next week.

    As a taster, for those still complaining about pot holes in the car park, this is what it used to look like just before we returned.

    Eventually, time, money and skills permitting all the photos and artefacts we have will be on a catalogue website but we'll stick more up on here and Dropbox soon.

    I done the exile and return to the valley for my popular memory project at university, Paul lent me quite a few bits and bobs which told the story, I'm not sure if he's shared these with you or not?

    was always in them mate, french crop chelsea boots and jeans , i had forgotten all about that, that was the weds or thursday before the return i think, Curbs spotted us watching in the east stand , thought we were for it, the ball came over we booted it back to nelse not scuffing the boots and he and the rest of the team came over spoke with us signed what we had bought in shop

    asked if we had a ticket for the day told them no , but that i knew a way in and would see it,

    we watched the game from the east stand behind the gardens , but you couldn't see all the pitch but could see enough
