Hi everyone, i'm working with someone who is a graphic designer and illustrator working on illustrating as many of the kits we can in the world from 1980-90 and i'm covering the Scotland research.

I have looked around generally and cannot find any great pictures online on Google or other sites plus i have exhausted all the info in all the Clydesdale Bank books. 

I was wondering if anyone on here is an ex player or a fan that goes back to the 80's of Arbroath fc, has shirts and photos of them, home and away, and or photographs in colours of the squads and the players, in black and white too even? 

Looking for photos featuring home and away with sponsors:

▪︎Umbro home and away with the small Smokeys sponsor

▪︎In house own brand Smokeys kits

▪︎Matsudo centenary kits

▪︎Swan National kits

This would be awesome if anyone could help in this project. 

Thanks.

Graham.

Give this site a go. One of our fans (he is a big nerd hahaha) did this as a hobby. SimonLichtie on here if you want to send him a message for any more info.

I prefer the term geek :P I've also no idea what this 'hobby' you refer too is - the Arbroath Archive is job. My day job is really just a side hustle to pay the bills so I can continue with the real work..... ;)

Selection of pictures below..... just ask if anything further would help/ a specific kit or whatever....

The quality of pics between 1986 and 1990 is just taken from the Arbroath Herald, like the last one in this post, so they're v poor. There are further pictures between 1980 - 86 if needed of decentish quality however :)

@36-0 Maroon May actually be the best man too speak to - he has a whole range of strips he owns and pictures of them which he may be kind enough to share with you ;)

This is belting Simon and your photos and your collection your self is phemomenal, the two best go to sources. Thank you immensely. I have never seen a color team photo pf the umbro before. Magic.

If you're looking for Photos of Arbroath in the 1980's you'll have to wait a decade because they still wear flares there.
