Yep, mine goes back earlier than all these.I started it as a kid about twelve in 1958 and kept going for about 10 years.Most match reports and pictures from the press. One page with just a small report of Johnnie Summers death on it with a black band surround (which I put on it myself). I have also got in it the original Mercury report on our 11-1 thrashing at Villa. The headline read 'MOURN CHARLTON: HOW PATHETIC THEY WERE' I still look at it occasionaly . Great stuff, football is never as exciting as when you were a kid,riding my bike to the ground parking it behind a house in Floyd Road for a couple of pence and walking down and soaking up the atmosphere. Great times.

Excellent stuff.
It would be great if you could find a way of posting some of it on here.
YES!! Did it for 3 seasons - the first by sheer coincidence the first ever promotion year I ever saw (75) I had no idea when I started it that year it would be a good un! Still have the books in my loft - great coverage from the Kentish Independent - great shots by Tom Morris.
And that Preston game is equal with the Sunderland final as my all time Charlton highlight. I think I stayed on the pitch for hours, taking home huge chunks of turf to plant in our garden!

Did one for the last game at The Valley (and continued it to complete the promotion season, the 1st season in Division 1 and a comeback special for the 1st game back at The Valley
"You lot are gonna love this!! I kept a millwall scrapbook for the 88/89ish season, i went to more millwall games than charlton around that time with me old man!! Never did keep a charlton one tho!!"
And you think the Gingerism abuse was bad. Stone him.
Never kept a scrap book but do have a two montages of tickets (play off signed by Sasa, 2 - 0 in the snow signed by kim grant plus signed programme from same game signed by whole squad, my article in the Observer, my share certificate and a voting slip from the SD election plus signed photos of Bartram and Matt Tees.
Do have a house full of A4 designs for new kits. Henry jnr has done all the Prem clubs and is now doing Seria A.
