Bosun11 537 Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 A great little book, one i've always treasured, with Speckle on the cover. I bought my copy off P.L. at that years Waterloo Cup, when he had a little trestle table stall up selling them and we chatted about a litter of his that was due. Be interesting to see how many still have 'em and what value they make. Link to post Share on other sites
Stabs 3 Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 I've got a signed one sat here...very good little publication. Anyone remember The Running Dog Year Book? Link to post Share on other sites
Bosun11 537 Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 I remember them Stabs, have copies too, a good read. On the remember thing.... There was a mag out before EDRD called The Working Terrier and Lurcher, if I'm correct? A glossy mag of similar type, published by two ex-coppers in Wigan. If i'm right they wern't dog lads but used the boom around that time to publish the mag an make a few bob. It was a crackin read, and looked a damn sight better than the first EDRD did. I think they were closed down by anti's giving them a hard time. I had all issues and done the decent thing and loaned them to a mate doin a stint in hospital, never seen 'em again!

Stabs 3 Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 Aye, I've got them sat here in the green faux-leather binder they came in too. As you say a very good read and Lloydy wrote some blinders for that mag. I seem to remember a three-parter on beardie lurchers? There were some big names writing back then Link to post Share on other sites
sheamus 0 Posted January 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 Alycon day`s eh Bet you haven't got the Waterloo tickets stabs? I kept mine every time i went back in the day`s when it was legal. But yes this is the Orange book with our Phil`s famous Speckle ont front. I have the Volume 2 1989 Green book with another one of our Phils dog`s ont front who was equally as famous "Lucy" that's available too. Also available is the Blue coloured Running Dog Year Book 1991. I must stress that these three books really need to go to a collector and lover of the Working dog. Swap or open to offer`s via PM please.. Link to post Share on other sites
Stabs 3 Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 No...not got the tickets from then but got plenty of tickets from later So which was the one with Phil's collie/deerhound mix on the front? Was that Lucy? Link to post Share on other sites

Was that Lucy? I thought Lucy was just Deerhound/Grey, that dog on the cover does look to have a drop of collie in it, it looks different from other pics of Lucy i've seen??
