Hi Peter,
My name is Michael Fry from Raleigh, North Carolina in the US.
I found your website by chance, and thought you might like this story.
When my grandfather passed away in the early 80's, my grandmother gave me one of his prized possesions, a football signed by an entire team of players. I'm sure she told me which team it was, but 20-some years have faded my memory. I've had this ball on display wherever I've lived, but really haven't looked at it for a long time, until this evening.
My 4-year old, Madeline, asked me about it, so I got it down and we started looking at all of the signatures. The only one I could clearly make out was one that said " Terry Cooper". Just for fun, we started trying to find out who he is on-line, and found your website. You seem to be a fan who would know.
I'm assuming he was on the Leeds team, but I wonder what year? The ball is a Mitre Permawhite Tom Finney Autograph, and it actually has 46 signatures on it.
If you would be interested in helping me research this, I could send you digital photos of each panel on the ball.
Hope to hear from you,
Mike
