    Maybe not what you had in mind but a favourite of mines, reminds me of my roots.

    Not sure what your time frame is but my brother did a painting of Easter Road and sent it to me as a gift. I can't upload a picture, for whatever reason .net won't let me but completely unique gift I was delighted with......

    I know my brother has commissions for the rest of the year but if you know of any artists around you it's a brilliant option.....

    I think I’ve a framed aerial shot of the stadium pre-East reconstruction. I’d need to dig it out but if you want it and you’re local it’s yours and your brilliant old Uncle. The 30s eh? Magic stuff. Wish he was sitting beside me at games. If you’re local I’ll drop it off gratis.
    Saving that, early 60s programmes used to have an aerial photo shot of the ground probably more like the way the auld fellah would remember it. I’ll give you one if you can find a decent printer who could reproduce it for you.

    Not great with the attachments on here, so don't think the attachment does it justice, but it is a wonderful shot. Has been featured on the Retro Hibs site previously.
