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. If you ever have a mind put them in a specialist auction. They'll probably give you a broad idea of what price to expect before you decide to sell.

But years ago I acquired about eight Beano and Dandy annuals in pristine condition. I wrapped them up and put them in a cupboard above the wardrobe to sell one day. Time went on, we had a baby boy, and three years later another! As time went on and they got to an appropriate age I got them out of the wardrobe and gave them to the boys, how could I not? My eldest boy loved them to death and read them many times, ongoing really, and my youngest boy too when he got a bit older. Those books were so valued that they traveled 10,000 miles with us in a shipping container. (We weren't in the shipping container!) When my wife and I separated and divorced there was obviously a big clear out of what was not needed but the boys aged seventeen and nineteen still have those Beano and Dandy books...

But I can't be bothered cus I don't need the money. I'll pass em down to the Grandkids when I'm gone, if their worth owt they'll only increase in value. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
