Hello friends,

A quick-ish question if I may.

My uncle, who sadly passed away a couple of months ago, has left me a mountain of football programmes (roughly 2/300) from yesteryear which I have no need or requirement to keep. I presume that most of them are Hibernian programmes however a quick skim through the top of the pile yesterday produced match programmes for the likes of Stoke City, Ipswich and Leicester dating back to the 70s. Although I've not caught sight of it, I'm assured there's a Madrid v Frankfurt programme in there.

Ideally, I'd be looking to sell but I'm unsure whether to do them in portions (i.e per club), as a job lot or some individually. Likewise, would I be best having them valued by a collector or should I place them on eBay?

Any help would be gratefully accepted. I did sell Subbuteo teams from the 60s last year and made an astonishing £1600 on eBay for just over 60 teams. It's crazy what people will pay for stuff like this.

You'll get the most for them if you sell them individually.

eBay is as good a place as any although you'll incur selling fees and Paypal charges.

You could try Gumtree which is split into regions and cities.

Maybe advertise the Hibs ones on Hibay on this site?

Hmm, I'll sort out the Hibs ones first and fire them up on Hibay and see what the script is. Thank you my friend.
