My mate has been offered the Eric Caldow shirt that he wore in the 1963 victory at Wembley in which Caldow got his leg broke , Does anybody on here know the value of such things for a rough guide ??

Brockleyjock is your man for shirts, I'm guessing it could be upto 4 figures if authenticated.

I can see that he has a framed shirt hanging on his living room wall, but never been able to make out what shade of blue it is.
It's probably the shirt he wore in the 1963 victory at Wembley... :wink2:

yup, if authenticated could be 4 figures - not many 60s shirts around with good history attached

What would Sammy Cox's number 3 shirt from the game in Denmark in May 1952 to be worth? I have full provenance.

I would say £350-650 for a Sammy Cox shirt - I paid somewhere inbetween these numbers for a '40s Sammy Cox inter league shirt a year or two go.

You're on Reeky! :wink2: I will send you a Paypal invoice later :ok:

BrockleyJock - you know more about these things than I do but I'm a bit surprised that an Eric Caldow 1963 shirt is 4 figures and a shirt 11 years older for a full international is only c.£500. I do appreciate that the 1963 game with Caldow's broken leg has a lot of history to it.

the England conenctions makes the difference at Auction - oddly, there are more '50s shirts about that '60s these days. My Cox shirt was a league international rather than a full Scotland shirt - which made a difference to the value I think they did play alot of inter league games in those days and dont think they were considered full caps as such. it could do 750 at auction , everyhing going well - but auctions are a bit randown - A Bobby Moncur '70s Scotland full international shirt went for just over £400 recently. If I had a job, I would have piled in...

Yes - that's a very good price for an early 70s shirt, There were a lot of inter league games played right up to the mid 1970s and, yes, they were not full caps.
