Aston Villa history

I also came across a carrier bag of Programs and fan magazines - here is a Birmingham City one, this is November 1968, apparently a neighbour had a relative who worked around the Midland football grounds and gathered mags, autographs and cuttings , he was having a clear out and they were passed on to my parents, who put it in a cupboard!

Finally although not Birmingham it is near enough, The Albion, note the autographs, to commemorate their visit to Wembley, possibly the last time they went ?

These are great pics Steve. I am a Villa supporter but my husband follows baggies. I remember this FA cup final. Great to see the team, especially the lovely Jeff Astle. Bumped into him in Teneriffe one year. Felt as if I’d known him all my life. Went to see them at Wembley against Port Vale in the 92/93 Play offs, Albion winning 3 0. Sue
