Lived about 150 yards away from the Montfords back in the very early 70's. His daughter was a tidy piece of kit in her day.

I've still got a few old Scotsport annuals up the loft including that year.
My dad's cousin was married to Arthur Montford and he would give us a copy at Christmas.
It was always had some cracking pictures from games.

I have a couple of copies of the 1965 book plus also the Scotsport 1972/73 (in colour) yearbook.
The 72/73 book has a section on Barcelona and Dave Smith as player of the Year.
Also team picture in colour.
Most of the other football annuals from the sixties that I can find are actually The Scottish football books by Hugh Taylor and The Topical Times 66/67 and 68/69.
Also from the same source I have a copy of the 1967 Cup winners cup final match programme .

Peerless prose: “Off the field Baxter is a quiet, well-mannered Fifer who loves to talk football - but will gladly listen to the other fellow’s point of view.”

Got quite of these old Scottish football books, from the late 50's
