George Best TRANSFER!  From late 1969 promotional transfers for the re-release of WIZARD COMIC in early 1970. This transfer is laid-down to paper, part of a page from an old school book, cut out carefully.

EXTREMELY RARE issue as transfers rarely last in their un-transferred state and this re-release was a very small and unsuccessful affair. There were not many of these issued nor did many survive! This is one of the first we have seen in nearly 50 years! We found a selection of these in the same school book, mostly Middlesbrough, some WBA and some Southampton but there were two George Bests - different to each other. See the other one further down this page.  X-RARE!

SOLD

George Best WIZARD orange the other George Best transfer, only the 2nd known -ever! Like the red one above this is from late 1969 when promotional transfers were issued for the re-release of WIZARD COMIC in early 1970. This transfer is laid-down to paper, part of a page from an old school book, cut out carefully. EXTREMELY RARE issue!  Back is plain paper, part of a page from a school book that the original owner used to adhere this rarity, upon it's first, and only possible transfer, sometime in around 1970

MANU Delaney

LIGHTER version on whiter cardstock MUCH RARER than supposed ... as rare as the 1930s issues AND RARER STILL as these cards have 3 - THREE - varieties. Post war paper supplies, being what they were, were hit and miss; so too was the printing, which is why these appear in at least THREE varieties, on white paper, or on buff-toned grey paper, and with so many types of off-set and litho print styles, dark and light backgrounds, etc. Surely one of the most difficult series to find all varieties of and impossible to complete a full set!

It's not every day you see these! You are more likely to see aliens in human clothing reading TV news (propaganda). Well, okay, so we do actually see those heartless beings every day. Bad allusion.

ava77best RARER than most think ... these unusual stickers, of Italian-production origins that are obscured under the Anglo American sounding name, Ava Americana, were to flank Panini's first openly Italian post-EEC (pre-EU) entry into The British Isles, in 1977. Notwithstanding stickers by 'Top Sellers' (a cover organisation, for those "printed by Panini" stickers - and funded by Panini too, through a Soho publisher-house of erotica, to put it delicately) no Italian sticker empires had made it into GB/UK/BI before the EEC-1976  changes to trade laws. This series was the joint-first, alongside rival Panini's Euro Football (1977) series. These days to find these stickers un-used is quite a rare event indeed.

GEORGE BEST - The Original Toker, the goal poacher extraordinaire who followed the bear, to whom the vodka-martini goddesses did build a temple - mausoleum - and the greatest talent of his day (and he knew some talent, by all accounts!)

Webcosa Law Now we are talking ... RARE!  Webcosa, late 1950's gum wax paper inserts : Manchester City : Denis Law

It is £95.00 ... because it will probably be the only time in your life that you get the chance to buy this.

(NOTE : if this did not have the pen, nor the dirty mark, it'd be £150!)
