HOMEMADE DISPLAY

 

A few months ago I decided that some sort of a case was necessary to display my collection of Heavyweight figures. After some deliberation I came up with the idea of purchasing 40 sets of repro inners from 70's style boxes that Subbuteoworld were producing and combining them together into 2 sets of 20 thus providing me with 400 different slots to display them. Then using double sided tape I carefully stuck them all side by side in a 5 wide x 4 high framework format and after some very tedious work with a printer and some circular labels - 'hey presto' - a display was born.

I then took some detailed measurements and passed a few rough sketches on to our Joinery Workshop who came up with 2 beautiful boxes to display them in.

The references range from 1-359 (400 including all the variations), although I am still missing a few teams from my collection.

The missing team references are ;

46 - Motherwell / Marsaxlokk  (Amber shorts version)

49 - Wolves (All old gold version)

49 - Wolves (All orange base version)

123 - Austria Saltzburg (White shirt & Lilac shorts version)

140 - Marseille (All white with light blue socks)

154 - England (Version with black trim)

260 - Harford Bicentennials (UK version with diagonal stripes going in the opposite direction)

273 - Boavista

292 - Halmstad

304 - Lille

306 - VFB Eppingen

327 - West Ham Utd. 2nd

328 - Luton Town

330 - Wales

331 - Eire

334 - Burnley

335 - Luton Town

341 - Toulouse

346 - St. Etienne

353 - Tranmere Rovers

If anyone can help me with even a single player that could represent the missing teams I would be willing to purchase them to try and complete the display.
