1954 - Chelsea v Arsenal 17/12/1954 Rare Pirate Football Programme Printed by Buick- Chelsea's First Championship Season

These are interesting artefacts, pirate programmes printed by entrepreneurs of the day cashing in on club's huge attendances.  They did not surface for every game and clearly were often identified by most as pirates as they look nothing like the real thing but now represent interesting historical items and to be fair to the printers they at least did have a photograph to the front!  They are much tougher to find than the actual programmes.
