fatface Posted April 30, 2020 Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 Is there any soul out there who has a collection of Speedway Stars they would like to pass on to a new owner? It's for a project. Particularly looking for 1970s-00s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigACE Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 I would love some from the 70s and early 80s. I have no chance. People would want big money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigACE Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 People do throw things away. I have with certain Speedway programmes. Football/Rugby shirts/programmes. One i regret the most is when i knew Leigh Centurions were stopping doing programmes i binned my entire collection of them. I say bin bag them and put them in the loft. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianbuck Posted May 2, 2020 Report Share Posted May 2, 2020 I used to have a huge collection of Speedway magazines dating back to 1932. I got married in 1969 and when I came back from honeymoon my Mother said to me "I've had a good clearout and have thrown all those old papers in your old bedroom away." Thanks Mum!!!!! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityrebel Posted May 2, 2020 Report Share Posted May 2, 2020 I've got them complete in binders from 1970 to 1986 and loose from 1987 to 1994, the year i stopped buying the star. I probably should have got rid of them years ago, but i needed some statistics so i kept them. Now thanks to some excellent websites like speedway researcher and international speedway, the time has come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An ex-girlfriend once did the same to me, but only the once. She gleefully informed me "I threw out all those music, speedway & motorbike magazines while you were at work, the dustmen arrived and took them all away". I informed her with equal glee that if she did anything like that again all her clothes would go into said dusbin for the dustmen to take away, was but one of very many reasons she became an ex-girlfriend and is no more. I replaced the lady in question and time replaced all the mags too. So, hah! . Was tempted but no, she didn't end up in the dustbin ....
