Leeds United Memorabilia is a captivating photographic history of artefacts and paraphernalia connected with the famous club and its 100-plus-year history. Although Leeds United did not produce football collectibles and souvenirs, they played a significant role in the industry, particularly during the 1960s and 1970s, when Don Revie revitalised the club and established them as a major player in world club football. Together with well-known collector and historian Neil Barker, author Robert Endeacott brings the artefacts to life with fascinating information and entertaining anecdotes. The book features contributions and interviews from major collectors such as Chris Miller, David Kirkby, Ben Hunt, Pete Hopton, Mark Whelan, and David Gaertner, as well as eye-catching photos of rare collectibles. There’s also a foreword by renowned sports artist and raconteur Paul ‘The Beaver’ Trevillion, who is an integral part of the history of Leeds United memorabilia. This book will be loved by Leeds fans of all ages!
