Old programmes = cash to BU ?

[Mikey Bee]

I am moving house (again ?!?!) in the next few weeks and have started boxing things up. Came across a load of old Bees programmes and fanzines which would have a value to collectors/other Bees fans.

Question - Have Bees United got any kind of tie in with the official programme collectors at the club ?

Basically I want to sell all of them to raise funds for BU and want to know the best way of doing it. Selling on eBay and sending all the profits to BU is another option.

Any ideas ?

Have u got a list ?

Not as yet. Still wading through the acres of crap you accumulate in your loft ! Some of the good ones (i.e. First Division days) got ruined after a leaky roof so still trying to see which ones are worth selling. Fanzines - a number of the early TITS ones from when I did the guide to the grounds feature. Some old Beesotted too....

Will list and post accordingly

Bish took some programmes from me for sale at a future BU event.

I have a number of QPR programmes from the 1960's which chart their rise from the 3rd to 1st Division. Included is one of the 1967 League Cup Final. Even though they're a family heirloom, I'll happily sell them for proceeds to Bees United. Forgetting our rivalry for a minute, I'd prefer them to go to a QPR fan direct, rather than some bloke who's gonna rip me (and said QPR fan) off. Can anyone help? PM me if you can.

I know a Ra-Ra who collects programmes. PM the list and I'll speak to him if you like

Get the Brentford Programme Collectors Club to give you the market value - so you get a fair price.

Might have a buyer for the Bees programmes. Will keep you posted. In the meanwhile, have listed a whole heap of others on eBay and all proceeds will go to BU. Feel free to bid

Does anyone have contact details for the Brentford Programme Collectors Club ?

 

[Mikey Bee]

Just in case anyone was interested in the progress, currently bids stand at £15.31 for the progs. Interesting to see that the LBC 6-a-side programme featuring the Bees is going for £3.70 at the mo

P.S. We beat Foolham 2-0 in the qualifiers that year before losing to Wimbledon 3-2 in the semi's....

Mikey, if you are going on Tuesday, you can see Steve Hearne who works in the programme shop and for BFCPCC on the Braemar Road side. If you don't stand over there for the game, just meet up with him after the game.
