I admire your contribution to local causes, but for flip sake, not Silverbridge!

I've been doing feckin O Hanlons for years and have yet to win a penny!

I'm looking for a picture of the an old GAA sticker album. It was circa 1994. IT came free with Kellogg's cereal. Both my brother and I had one and both finished it. I dunno how we got stickers- maybe they came free with the cereal too or maybe you had to buy them.
The album was made of cardboard and used to have a pull down tab on the back that would show you who won the provincial titles and AI titles in both GAA and Hurling for the given year.

This is the only imagine I can sort of find of it, there is possibly a Clare hurler on the front.



Equally I would also like a picture of the 1994 USA World Cup Album that had either Andy Townsend (nearly sure him) or Jason McAteer on the front.

I know exactly where both these articles are in my mothers house but just want a picture of them at the minute.

the same pack had like a wee cardboard book, with a pull down feature which gave all the counties a preview for what to expect in the 1994/5 CHAMPIONSHIP. Derry were favourites!!!!!!!! It also told the history of each county in football and hurling. I still have it in the house. You got them free with kellogs. I think there was a picture of James McCartan on front.

YES! James MCCartan defiantly was on the front now that you mention it. I have it at the house also. I was only 7 at the time of it coming out. Did all the stickers come in the pack or did you have to collect them also? I can't mind.

came in separate packs. I tell ye know I think it was big jack Sheedy of Dublin chasing mccartan. I'm not home until Christmas; i'll get a few pics of it and post it then.

The uncle is a headmaster and his school had one. I got it after lending a hand in a tidy up.

The pull down tab was a great history lesson in itself.

Fabulous addition to my programme collection. Good old Kelloggs.
