Christmas came early today for the museum.

A fan donated this extremely rare 1986/87, we believe, Adidas Woolwich matchworn long-sleeved shirt.

Bit of research now needed to find out exactly when it was worn and by whom.

Andy Peake.
I'm guessing this will be as rare as the White one that recently popped up.

Steve Gritt possibly

Talal · December 2023

I think Peake, Shipley and Gritt were the ones to have worn 4 in blue in 86/87.

It wasn't easy or cheap finding some local angelic looking kids to hold up home made "can I have your shirt (insert name)" signs game after game but you have to put the work in to build a collection and it finally paid off.

We were also given a big wodge of teamsheets today

Whatever happened to the last Arsenal reserve and our centre backs?

I hope we won this game as their was no opposition

Years ago I came across these Matryoshka dolls in Charlton colours on a week-end in Prague.
Are they of any interest to the museum?

I bet they couldn't believe their luck when they got someone to buy them!

@Stuart_the_Red

Yes please, I love this sort of slightly offside type of items

Can’t even say they’re full of themselves.

@Stuart_the_Red Blimey, that's even more niche than the garden gnomes the club shop used to sell.

I’m pretty sure I had them Russian dolls too in the past , no idea where I got them from but they’ve gone missing over the years .

Athletico Charlton · January 26

Takes me back to the late '80's and a school trip to Poole where I found some weird little ornament of a nut in a Charlton shirt and the inscription "Charlton nut" at the bottom. I of course snapped it up but no idea where it ended up, a strange item to find anywhere let alone in a shop in Poole.

I wonder which player donated it?

I had one of these

Very, very rare 1923 reserve programme purchased at auction.

Seems the game was played at Catford which is odd because reserve games were still being played at the Valley.
