Henry IrvingHenry Irving
edited November 2012 in General Charlton
Following on from AFKA's launch message for Target £2500 this is the first auction to raise money towards the new academy vehicle that Paul Hart has asked for.

First up a Tom Morris Photo framed by Garry Nelson (stickers confirming this are on back of the pic) for which we are very grateful to Adrian. This is just one of the prizes he has very generously given to these auctions. He even carried them over from Paris. Top Man.

This is the 93/4 squad pictured at the training ground in classic team line-up mode. The mount has been signed by 27 players and coaches.

Clockwise from bottom left Steve Gatting, John Vaughan, Paul Gorman, Shawn Newton, Jimmy Hendry, Paul Sturgess (?), Alan Pardew (?) , ?, kim Grant, ?, ?, Richard Rufus, Scott Minto, Garry Nelson, Colin Walsh, Bob Bolder, Carl Leaburn, Alan Curbishley, David Whyte, Peter Garland, Alan McCleary, Keith Peacock, Steve Gritt, Mark Robson, ?, ?, ?, Paul Linger. (any help filling in the gaps much appreciated.

With frame this is 15'' x 12'' and in excellent condition.

For such a nice piece with so many legends signatures this is going to have to start at a premium price. Opening bid £60

The winner will need to pay postage or be willing to collect. Auction ends next Wednesday 7th November 2012

Happy bidding.image

    I have the same mounted, framed and autographed photo hanging in my study.

    It was give to those that purchased (donated) at least L2,500 toward the building of the East Stand, back in the day. We also got a framed and mounted share certificate and our names on a gold plaque that was displayed on the back of the East Stand.

    It is a very nice item from back in the day.

    I guess it cost you as much as your loss with the shares fiasco. Am I right?

    If I let 10 goals in it will be your fault.
