1946 Wakefield Trinity v Wigan Challenge Cup Final programme which cost me £25 in the seventies. A rare programme due to it being the first final after the war and only a limited number were printed.

The autographs of the entire Wigan team from a 1936 match v Wakefield.
It is signed by Jim Sullivan, Ken Gee, & Hector Gee, amongst others.
I managed to get hold of pictures of all the players (with a little help from A&L who sent me a picture of Charlie Banfield), and framed the entire thing.
If you want a better copy of this for your site A&L, send me a message and I'll see what I can do.

Interesting topic and I didn't realise just how much I had accumulated over the years until I just opened a cupboard door and an avalanche of Wigan related stuff came out but initially my favourites are the ball signed by Pat Richards that was the centre piece from his table on the night he won Man of Steel in 2010 - he signed it for my better half who had spent most of the summer in hospital after being struck down by a major heart attack in the June of that year, the End of an Era brochure from when Wigan played Saints on 5th September 1999, the programme signed by the Wigan squad and officials from the Stones premiership final of 1996 simply because one of the touch judges that I know got it signed for me and he is a fanatical Wire supporter so I was both shocked and touched that he bothered

The rarity of such a document makes it value immeasurable :)

Any chance you can post him a photocopy back or do we all have to do 50 press ups.
