Think they might be you know 

1956, 1957, 1958.

Got all the football programmes from that era as well.

All in a suitcase upstairs.

1935 cup final one, my dad was there when the Owls beat West Brom. 4-2.

Also the first game Man Utd played after the Munich disaster.

I had a newsagents in the 60s 

People used to come in and order them and we’d have boxes of them delivered from the wholesalers 

Beano Annual was by far the most popular closely followed by Dandy .

Rupert was always a favourite and Eagle and Girl Annuals 

The older folks went for Giles and Andy Capp and the old ladies bought People’s Friend and the Friendship Book of Francis Gay

We used to sell the latter in huge numbers which was always a source of great amusement  to me
