***Check out our upcoming Nottingham Forest Events***
For one of our exclusive signing sessions we reunited 13 of the players from that historic era for Forest and held a very private and exclusive signing session where the players signed the iconic red Nottingham Forest shirts from the 1979 Final and some A1 sized montage posters (which are the largest pictures we have ever done!)
2020 is the 40th anniversary of the second European Cup win, and the veterans of Forest gathered in a secret location in the heart of Nottingham City for a signing session that turned into a reunion, as the players who hadn't seen each other in over a year, rolled back the years and laughed and joked about their playing days
This memorabilia is highly limited and isn't available yet - as plans are in place for more legends of 79 / 80 to add their signature to the shirts and posters
