The "Legible" Soccer Diary 1966
H.B. Langman & Co. Ltd.
66 photos
I'm looking for some help. I've compiled lists of the photos found in all the Legible Soccer Diaries from 1952 to 1967. I'd love to add the 1996 diary and I've found these photos on eBay, but I've no idea if it's a complete list, though I doubt if it is. I was wondering if anyone can help with further research?
UPDATE (05-11-2026 10:40): Steve Hale has completed this checklist with a long list of photos.

Hi Alan, this should complete your checklist. The misspellings of Lockhead and Bill Galzier are exactly as they appear in the diary. Like so many others, I’m grateful for all the checklists you compile—I don’t know how you manage it! Even this small contribution was quite a task for me. All the best, Steve.
