    1972 league cup souvenir poster - Marie Curie Charity Cycle

    I have kindly been given permission from the EEN, to reproduce this fabulous poster that is close on 45 years old. It's all for my fundraising and charity cycle. £10 each 420 x 594 (smaller than original) and the quality of the printing is 10/10👍

    I only picked then up yesterday and will be making a plan of action within the next few days, possibly over the weekend (working)

    GGTTH 💚🏆👍

    Excellent idea. I too had one.

    I'm surprised a similar one hasn't been produced for last May.

    I've still got the original. The artist was Gilzean and some of the caricatures are absolutely brilliant.

    It's well worth having and of course you'll be donating to a great charity.

    Harry Gilzean of the Evening News:

    http://www.thenationalfootballcollec...ns-by-gilzean/

    I used to have the book pictured in that link but think it fell apart. Gilzean used to be at Easter Road one week and Tynecastle the next and would draw a cartoon round-up of the match for the back page of the Monday paper. I used to love reading them as a kid. I think he was a Hibs fan but I'm not certain.

    As has also been mentioned on this forum before, there was a weekly Hibs/Hearts cartoon in the Saturday evening 'Pink' by E W Wright, featuring the terracing observations of a pair called Boab and Eck, one Hibby and one a Jambo. In the close season the venue switched from the football terraces to the bowling green.

    He was a Hibs fan. He also had a shop off the top of Cockburn Street.

    The EN takes a fair bit of stick on here and quite rightly so to be honest but, on this occasion they deserve a bit of praise for allowing this. Oh aye, I'll have one too.

    Flesh market close. It was a brilliant wee shop. JESUS SAVES! But Brownlie nets the rebound.
    He made me a Jam Tarts The Muppet Men badge which was much admired.
    I have managed to retain my grubby copy of the book but I can't recall if I got it at his shop or the club shop.

    I've also managed to hold on to A4 caricatures he sold of Stanton, Brownlie and Blackley but they are in some nick.

    Did it become a sandwich shop? Apart from Alfie's the barber and the two pubs I can't think of any other businesses on Fleshmarket Close though it's a while since I've climbed those steps.

    It seems like another world away its been that long. There was definitely an old style pet shop right close to it.
