Myself and Don went to the museum today. It is absolutely brilliant, an essential visit for all Charlton fans .
Well done to all involved , and thank you to all who have donated items. A very uplifting experience, and it puts your own personal support of the Club back into context and perspective, both in terms of your own life and of the Club itself , you realise how you have only witnessed a small percentage of the whole. Given time I believe there is even more material which could be displayed.
Can wholeheartedly agree with Dennis. It is brilliant and every Charlton fan should go to see it. I bought a great signed photo of Colin Powell, my fondest memories are of him setting up goals for Killer and Flash, so am chuffed to have his signed photo at last. Also bought a set of postcards and made a small donation to the Museum. Would have liked to buy the Home and Away book that Glass Half Full bought, but decided it was far too heavy to carry back to Hants. Had a nightmare journey there as no trains were stopping at Charlton, and seemed to walk through most of Lewisham to find the stop for a bus to get me to Charlton. So if I can do all this after a 100 mile journey it will be easy for those (sensibly) living nearer to the Valley. It reminded me that that current regime can't take our history away, whatever else they may do! Please go everyone. Thanks to Henry and co. for all their hard work!
Thanks Henry. Did think about seeing if it could be posted, but thought the postage would be very high. Will see if I can persuade one of the family to do the carrying another time. I will be back.
And tell people about all the lovely stuff you can buy.
You should be one of the first to see the new improved audio visual room Haven't seen it myself yet
Will this be up and running for this coming Friday, I'm bringing my mother in law - she remembers watching Sam Bartram play. For the right deal. I'll leave her as an exhibit!

Static figures for the front, middle and back? Sounds like the wish list for network player recruitment...
I've got a couple of boxes full of all sorts. Might have some 70s programmes but probably nothing else from that decade. Anyway, it needs sortng out so when I get round to it I'll see if there's anything interesting among it all and if there is I'll inbox you.
I did have most programmes from the 70s at one time, but due to many moves, had to get rid of them. I do have some photos from that decade, black and white only, if they might be of interest. When I get time to see who they're of, will inbox you Henry.

I just saw it lying there in reception and though that will look good in the museum.
Hope I haven't caused a problem.

Sorry about the cold. We weren't trying to recreated that standing on the old East terrace experience it's just that the heating is broken.
There is a lot more material in boxes and cupboards awaiting sorting and hopefully more yet to be donated.
So glad the trip was worthwhile.
It's heartening to read reports from visitors as it means we weren't the only ones who though it would be a good idea.
If you still want the book then we can post it to you but p and p might be a lot.
anyone else they are 15 quid each brand new.
Lots of Bartram exhibits and a DVD
We'll most likely open 11.00 to 12.30 or 1.00.
Will be by appointment only at first to see how it works.
Mannequins to display shirts
More storage space and boxes.
More 1970s items.
Any pre-war programmes and handbooks.
Sounds fantastic - well done Henry and everybody involved.
Will make a point of paying a visit

Open tomorrow at 11.00am til 3.30pm
Some new signage going up soon outside and the big screen is being wall mounted.
We've also been given a combination DVD and video player so we can show all those old videos we have.
Yes, will be open as normal on Friday.
Will also be open before the VIP meeting from 5.30 to 6.45pm
