RARE COMPLETE SEASON / SET Charlton Ath 1946/47 League Home Programmes (All 21)

Here is a very rare opportunity for a complete collection of Charlton Athletic's full home league programmes from 1946/47 season (a season which they would win the FA Cup)

This was the return to the first full Football League programme post war season where it returned to 4 Divisions and Division 1 and Division 2 were no longer geographically divided. 

A wonderful selection of programmes, given a window into life in Britain shortly after the Second World War had finished - with interesting notes and adverts to read.

Charlton returned to a issuing a full 8 page programme, rather than the single page issue seen during War and shortly after - Priced at 2d each, with the exception of the very rare Fuel Emergency Edition (Aston Villa) which was a 4 page issue.

Nearly all of the programme is in good / very condition, however they all have score noted on front. A couple also have an annotation regarding the owners exasperation that Charlton should've won or shouldn't have lost! Most have score/scorers noted on team line up page, with a couple having "Wot a goal" noted inside!
