FA Cup 1950’s

I did post these on here just over seven years ago, but I have given them a bit of a facelift for another project,  so thought it might be nice to share them again.

 

These are programme covers, match reports and pictures etc. They come from a supporter’s scrapbook covering the three seasons in the 1950’s, when the original Hastings United, made the third round of the FA Cup, three years running! Breaking many records and appearing on TV!

The brother of the supporter, knowing my love for programmes and Hastings United, plonked this scrapbook in my hand, in the early 2000’s, at a home match, saying, “I think you might find this interesting, don’t really want to throw it away”. I don’t remember the match, as I spent most of the game glued to this scrapbook.

It has been a labour of love to scan and edit, as the pictures and programmes overlap etc. The scrapbook is double the size of my A4 scanner, as most newspapers in the 1950’s were broadsheets. It also now has a couple of programmes that were originally not included and I actually now only require one programme for completion.  

This is the first of the three seasons, 1953-1954. I will post the other two seasons, if interest is shown. Please enjoy…
