Great idea, I'll have to stump up from photos.
Just done a bit of research, Trafford BC have an acrhive of old local newspapers... they have
Altrincham, Bowdon & Hale Guardian
Jan 1904 - Dec 1969
Altrincham Guardian
January 1970 - October 1982 then continued as Altrincham and Sale Guardian
How about someone over there (I'm in Nottingham) taking a look and seeing if we can get Jack a couple of facsiimlies .There were always great headlines and photos. Also someone up there might know where the original photos/negatives are.
With some decent kit even copies from the newspapers might produce great images - anyway, done well reproductions would convey the sense of history from those great days.
