Hello greenred,

The big cabinet you see here...

belongs to a one-time ocassion when my friend who opened a soccer shirts shop in Hong Kong, borrowed my shirts for an exhibition of 2 weeks. :laugh:

These shirts generally are packed up in my home instead of such an elegant cabinet.

Moreover, really God knows that the vintage shirts are so sought after in these days?! Really hope to have a time machine to travel back in time to meet the factory manager or any of the foremen then to get back the old vintage shirts! :love:

Detailed sources are certainly secret... :talktothehand

But there are some reputable soccer memorabilia dealers around the world. Some sell vintage shirts otherwise sell modern shirts. Ebay is another very good source, though I can say it's quite risky.

Examples of trustworthy memorabilia sellers:

http://www.matchwornshirts.com
http://www.mws-spain.com

Regarding worthing a fortune, I can only say that I know some of my shirts are quite valuable, but I have no desire for a resale as I am a collector instead of a dealer. I am quite happy hanging up the shirts in my bedroom and look at them in details...like this:

By the way friends here, I have posted a topical discussion and illustration about Evolution of Liverpool Soccer Shirts from 1960 to 2005[B] in the "The Kop" section of the forum:

http://www.liverpoolfc-newkit.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=14551

Welcome to take a look at the above.

P.S.: Just wonder why the traffic of and concentration of fellow members of this forum is focused mainly in the top forum, and seldom visitors in "The Kop" forum?

Is that the norm here?
