The cup final programme is for sale on eBay: Scunthorpe Scorpions/Poole Pirates-K.O.Cup Final-Both Legs-Programmes-NEW | eBay

The 2023 Prague, Gislaved, Riga and Gorican programmes are all for sale on eBay.

Have you contacted Speed-Away promotions to see if they can provide any of these cards?

Yes, there is a market for old Speedway Stars but there are plenty for sale. Have a look at eBay to get an idea of what they are on sale for. There are also some Facebook groups where Speedway memorabilia is bought and sold. In my experience, there isn't a high demand for a large collection of 200 magazines, your client would have a better chance of selling individual magazines and an even better chance of selling individual magazines if they were to describe the contents/articles in the magazine. This takes effort but does attract speedway fans of particular teams or riders from years gone by.

If you are on Facebook, join the Speedway Programme Collectors Group and ask there.

Use Google maps with the post code ME9 8SP to get an idea of what the track and surrounding area looks like from the air. Dave Payne was also there so he may have some photos of what the track looks like at the ground level.

Try the Barrow Speedway Facebook Group. I am sure someone on there can tell you the outcome of the Barrow meetings.

The speedway we refer to is the shortened name for Motorcycle Speedway. Here is Wikipedia's take on the origins of the sport: Motorcycle speedway - Wikipedia
