It was something that Chaz Robinson wanted to do but amongst other difficulties preventing it was that point regarding security.
Not the same but the display case in the main reception of NYS has some interesting stuff in it.

Thanks for this Lincs.
I actually just won the auction for it! Quite chuffed.
Congratulations to whoever bought the 1914 programme. You outbid me in the final 10 seconds, it looks fantastic!
Does anybody know the existence of any older programmes from our predecessor clubs?
Cheers Lincs. It was actually the Notts County programme I bought, not this Notts Forest one!
I had no idea at all how to value it, but the Hull City programme from 1914 sold for £325!
Yeah, it would have been for sentimental purposes, wouldn't have had any plans to sell it on.
With the 1914 one I was actually thinking if I won it that it was such an interesting piece I was going to talk to the club about maybe getting it properly scanned and re-printed and then give fans the chance to buy it on a match day with the funds going to charity.
I just don't know how rare such programmes are, or whether there might be many better older examples that maybe the club possesses. I know I'd pay a fiver for a replica of such an old an interesting item to support a good cause.
Sadly it's not mine to be able to do that with! Though the photos from the ebay listing would probably suffice and from a legal perspective would only require the permission of the person who took them, the ebay seller under the name maltbymiller.
It's a fascinating programme.
