stuthejag Posted July 19, 2020 Report Share Posted July 19, 2020 Someone is selling John Cameron's Greenock Charity Cup winners medal from 1893, way outta my price range tho lol. eBay We pumped Morton 7-4 in the final too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West of Scotland Posted July 20, 2020 Report Share Posted July 20, 2020 "Only the 3rd Medal ever won by Partick Thistle." So what are we on now, 127 years later? Double that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaggernaut Posted July 20, 2020 Report Share Posted July 20, 2020 Am I right in thinking that the 1921 Cup-winning team didn't get medals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinhead Posted July 20, 2020 Report Share Posted July 20, 2020 I would be surprised if that sells on ebay, would probs need a specialist auction for something like that. Even with that £1500 is quite a lot unless it means something to the buyer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a cracking bit of Jags history! And it 99% clears up my query regarding 1921 medals. But has anybody ever actually seen one of these?

Of course it's not a chocolate orange - it's maybe one of those old hand stitched leather baws that weighed a ton & weren't particularly nice to header Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady-isobel-barnett Posted July 22, 2020 Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 Maybe it's just me but I'd rather own the John Blair letter than the medals. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
