[Help] Anywhere local to get football memorabilia valued?

I have recently been given a bag of old Albion memorabilia and been asked if I can check if any of it has any value. Is there anyone in the Brighton/Hove area that values this kind of stuff?

The thing that stands out the most is a limited edition plaque from our first game in Division 1 of the Football League vs Arsenal. It is number 0046, but no idea how many were actually made. Has quite a few memorable names on the plaque.

Went up in the loft earlier and found my signed ball from around 1984. Bids start at £10000.

I doubt any kind of Brighton memorabilia is worth anything, unless it's so rare and exceptional that it would for a very specific reason appeal to football fans all around the world.

It's more likely that recent stuff, eg. signed shirts of current players, are worth more than anything historic.

Not that I noticed but I haven't been through it all yet. If I find any, I'll let you know.

I thought as much. Might just pinch all the good stuff for my own collection.
