About this book

Give the gift of history to the Owls fan in your life thanks to our Personalised Sheffield Wednesday History Book. Kicking off with the earliest newspaper reports from 1907, the book documents the greatest games and players, leading right up to the latest season. Open up the History of Sheffield Wednesday FC Book and reminisce about the best moments in the history of one of football’s oldest clubs.

This book captures the major triumphs of the Owls, from the early 20th century to the recent past, such as the back-to-back league titles of 1929 and 1930 and the shock ’91 League Cup final triumph. All the events are reported on by reporters who experienced the games rather than by those looking back in time, making this Sheffield Wednesday memorabilia rather unique.

Since the team was founded in 1867, the Owls have been represented by some of the best players in football history. Kevin Pressman, Mel Sterland and David Hirst are just some of the names that feature, along with more recent cult heroes like Barry Bannan and Fernando Forestieri. Fans can relive the team’s most celebrated games at Hillsborough and much more, all with this Sheffield Wednesday gift.

The Soccer History of Sheffield Wednesday Book FAQs

How long will this book take to arrive?

Each of our orders is printed on demand, made special just for you and the reader you’ve created it for! Typically, it takes 1-3 days for our workshops to receive, make, and finally hand each order over to the postal carriers for delivery.

Who would this football book make a great gift for?

Our football history books would make a great gift for any lover of the history of football. However, the each book is designed to appeal to fans of the individual football teams. They make a great keepsake to look back on again and again.

Are the pages real, or reproductions of newspapers?

The pages are scans of original newspaper pages. Every effort has been made to clean up scans to make them as clear as possible. In some instances there will be blemishes and the reproduction quality may not be as clear or precise as copying directly from the actual papers itself. 

What name can I enter in the personalization?

Enter the name as you wish it to be printed on the book. You have a maximum of 13 characters for the first name and surname – which is optional. Please only use standard characters that may be part of someone's name. This include accents. Make sure to double-check your spelling.

Does the book contain every newspaper article about the team?

If we included every article then the book would be too big to print. We have edited the book to include the most interesting articles about their victories, and defeats, to tell the the full story of the team's history.
