Right this is the third scrapbook of three, they were done by my aunt when she was a very young girl (I don't think she had any scissors though. lol).
They are just newspaper reports and pictures of Fulham games from 1948 to 1951. I had to make e/copies of them because they
were falling apart and soon there will be nothing left of them. I know they arn't going to be much use to the majority of users
on this site, but just thought someone may enjoy reading some of the old clippings. I've uploaded one picture just to show
you what I mean.
I have been surprised by how many people have downloaded these files, hope you have enjoyed reading some past Fulham History.

Quite right LB. Old buggers like me who started following our beloved team in 1951 would love to see this sort of thing published in TOOFIF.

PS - what a goal scoring machine Arthur Rowley was. When we nominate our Fulham team of the Century we often forget Arthur Rowley, perhaps because he played for other teams as well as us, but in front of goal he was magic. :Sparkyticus:

Wow, this is fantastic. I was a young whipper snapper then. Nice to see pictures of Jim Taylor, Len Quested, Arthur Stevens and the rest of them. Marvellous.

Arthur Rowley was another mistake by Fulham. Because he was'nt as prolific in our first season in the 1st Division, Bill Dodgin let him go to Leicester, were he regained his touch and scored a hatful for them.
