Guys

I have in my possession a team photo of the 77 north team, on the back of the photo is has all the signitures of the players and coach, I have had it for some time (it was given to me by an old timer from the club along with a copy of the North story and membership medallions from 76 & 77) I was thinking of giving it to the club (for auction) it isn't framed or anything and I would hate for it be damaged, any ideas who I should contact, is it worth enough to them to bother with ???

Many cashed-up North supporters would pay hundreds (if not more) for stuff like that. All the items on auction at the last couple of Pagan's Patrons ****tail parties have fetched a packet.

Not sure who to contact, but you'd think someone in the marketing department would be the ones to talk to. Personally, I wouldn't be able to part with something as unique as those items.

Not easy for me either, but I'm not a collector and I just thought that I have had them for some time and done nothing with them, I would like to see them with someone that would treasure them and hopefully generate some $$$ for the club.

However if Eade gets the job I may have to reconsider as I couldn't stand the thought of any of my money in his pocket. Narrow minded opinion I know but I just don't like the guy.

Captain, forget about giving it to the Club, as they will either lose it, have it stolen or leave it lying around to get damaged.

I could tell you a dozen horror stories regarding priceless items that are no longer in the Clubs possession. These items will never be enjoyed by members and those who love the Club because of the Clubs inability to protect its valuable history.

There is no one at the Club who looks after this sort of thing, so I would wait until we move into Telstra Dome to see if they can find a spot for it there. Even then, I believe they will only be allowed to have a certain amount of stuff on the walls, which may make it hard to display what stuff they do have from our past glories.

Even then, I don't believe it would be appreciated for what it is.

If you do decide to sell it, let me know as I would be very interested to buy it off you. Or, you may wish to put it on Ebay to auction off; you may generate more money this way.

You may consider donating the money to Club, if you are that way inclined.

Go Roos!
