I have a Sun Allstars short-sleeved guernsey from the 1975-76 VFL-Sun newspaper promotion where a VFL team of 18 VFL current players were selected and at a lunch at the MCG the players were presented with this guernsey and a mounted football as trophies. I also have a video tape made in 1977 by HSV 7, introduced by Peter Landy. Syd Sherrin explains how Sherrin footballs were made. It was used for showing to VFL umpires' groups, country league delegates and at a VFL coaches seminar. Only shown about six times. Worth anything, Rick?Ian BoucherRM: A couple from out of left field here! I like the footy jumper, and I'd reckon you might get $200 on a good day. On the other hand, videos are notoriously difficult to sell, because they're so easy to copy. Maybe $50.Write to: Rick Milne, Sporting Worth, 5 Cooraminta Street, Brunswick, 3056; mrpp@iprimus.com.au; phone (03) 9387 4131, fax (03) 9387 8240.
