I did finish Football 83 or 84 though. Still have them too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Still have them too.  Don't be so sure that they are worthless. I recently had a nose round on Ebay and the Europa 80 album I have is worth a decent amout. but what I did discover is there is a massive amount of people swapping and STILL collecting 78,80,82,84 and beyond! I was astounded! There are stacks of stickers for that 78 still around, so DON'T throw it away!! I bet you could get a good price for it uncompleted. I'd be tempted to try and complete it. In fact, a totally empty Europa 80 album recently sold for nearly £200! (They were about 25p-35p to buy in 1980!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

GLASGOWOODS   10 #22 Posted May 25, 2014 Certainly 66 I can easily believe. Before my time though   I used to collect footy cards back in the 70s up to about 1980. However, I worked for Cutts Bro's down Darnall (a paper recycling company) from 1985-87. Every month we would take delivery of hundreds of black bin-liners full of mags,newspapers and football stickers and albums etc: The boss didn't mind me taking full boxes of un-opened stickers and empty albums 1986-87 season (I think?) The album has owls v brighton on the front. FA cup semi-final (owls lost 2-1)  Anyhow I stored the stickers/albums for over 20 years, then sold 18,000 all from that season for over a grand. Nice little earner for no outlay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
*_ash_*   88 #23 Posted May 28, 2014 Well, I'm getting to the point where buying them is getting me about 1 in 5 needed ones  I'd forgotten how important it is to know other people collecting!  I've got about 150 swaps now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Farslad   10 #24 Posted May 29, 2014 I had a complete '66 one as a kid. The stickers were small black and white squares.  I've no idea how I got hold of it (this was in the early 80's) and I have no idea what happened to it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
