ALBUMS
The autographs in the ”collection 70-71” consist of 92 albums, one for each English league club from that season. Those 92 albums have been numbered and cataloged from Arsenal, the winner of the first division, to Barrow, whom finished last in the fourth division
It is a gigantic collection. The autographs consist of signatures on white cards, sheets, magazine pictures, cuttings, programs, signed team pictures and even signed souvenirs from that time.
TEAMS
The Team Pages displays their signatures on Digital Autograph Cards, Team by Team in the 4 divisions 1970-71.
It´s years of hard work to create the Albums and the Site and I believe this is an unique and interesting collection and probably one of the largest in the world over one single season.
PICTURE GALLERY
Collection 70-71 is only a moment of British football history, but it can tell some about an era when English football was of the highest international level at Wembley in 1966
Chelsea is my Club and I was member at the time it all started (See the foot of the site). I still support Chelsea but my heart belongs to all English Clubs. This Site is made for every Club and every fan having interest in the past. You can say this site is filled with nostalgia..
