Back in 2012 Marks & Spencer carried an exclusive range of Roy of the Rovers merchandise - there's more than this just this pinball game to track down but you've got to start somewhere!
And now here's another bit of merchandise - a table football table!
And now here's another bit of merchandise - a celebration trophy
And now here's another bit of merchandise - a blow football set
And now, thanks to Trevor Melvin, we have a mug & sock combo - the socks have 'He shoots He scores - Roy of the Rovers' embroidered on them.
and also a hand towel, c/o Ian Thornhill
I've also now got a list of what was produced, thanks to friend of the blog Jeremy Briggs who pointed me towards this (contemporary) article from 2012 that lists all 10 things that M&S produced. Weirdly that list doesn't include the football quiz card (above) but there you go. So I'm still looking for...
a). leather wallet
b). an M&S edition of the Best of the 1970s reprint book
c). football hand warmers
d). metal keyring
Some images of some of the missing items - better images sought!
UPDATE:
over on the Roy of the Rovers facebook page (here) Chris Mabbutt was kind enough to supply these images of the key-ring
