My father inlaw has just given me the actual herald sun grand final souvenir. Helping his father rearange things found it folded up with other items, Knowing i love me tiges he sent it over with the Minester for war (thats the wife)
color page has three large Photos, captain Fred Swift breaking through the banner, my father inlaw played under him at Corowa in the O&M and always spoke very highly of him
secound has Mike Pattersson in a ruck dual against 2 geelong opponents
Third is KB with what only can be described as glorious blond or redish locks, the photo caption says Richmond rover Kevin Bartlett is tackled by geelong ruckman bill ryan as he tries to send his side into attack. The photo shows KB with Ryan with both hands holding kbs arms u can see that kb is about to do the arm back thing no ball in sight, Yah got a believe free kick to KB
And apparently u could get 5 petrols from the one pump with BPs super mix (all petrols are benzol powered)
Also have got the original front and back page cover has the players running lap of honour as full page, also Gunman holds tab girl hostage (see page three)
Page 2 and59 have assorted photos main one of Fred swift with headline of the day richmond belonged to him, with Fred wearing the mayoral robes
Back page 60 headline mark of the day shows royce hart Absolute screamer here is what is written
This fantastic leap by Royce Hart, who was playing center-half-forward at the time was undoubtedly the mark of the day. He came from behind, "flew" over geelong half-back Peter Walker, held the ball safely and crashed to the ground when his foot was caught behind walkers neck. Hart was not injured by the fall and he proved this at the celebration dinner when he danced with miss Cheryl Collins. He couldn't be injured to do the twister.
It then shows him dancing with miss Collins might i say he looks as stiff and uncomfortable on a dance floor as i do
