Addicks fans in search of a last-minute Christmas present can snap up a selection of books about their club at The Valley on Sunday, December 21.

Four supporters who have turned their passion for Charlton into a labour of love will be signing copies of their respective publications when the club’s new museum opens to the public for the first time.

The event, which runs from 10.45am to 2pm on the third floor of the stadium’s north stand has also been timed to coincide with the Young Addicks’ Christmas Party.

Paul Breen, Rick Everitt, David Ramzan and Richard Redden will all be on hand to sell and sign copies of their books, while supporters can also browse the fascinating range of exhibits assembled by a team of volunteers. There is no admission fee, although fans may opt to donate to the museum.

Breen’s book, The Charlton Men (£9.99), is a novel about two young men whose personal story is played out to the background of the team’s 2011/12 promotion campaign.

Everitt’s Battle for The Valley is an extended version of his 1991 account of the history of the ground and the club’s struggle to get back there in the late 1980s and early 1990s, including the story of the Valley Party. The book now includes the emotional return on December 5th, 1992.

The view from the stands is also an important feature of Ramzan’s Charlton Athletic – A History (£16.99), which has been compiled with the help of supporters’ groups as well as the club’s  Former Players’ Association. As with his previous books, this is well illustrated throughout.

Redden, meanwhile, focuses on the earliest days of the club with the only hardback title of the four, The Addicks Cartoons (£11.95), featuring the graphics that appeared in the local press before the First World War, together with a wealth of fascinating background information.

Visitors to the museum and book signing should use the door adjacent to the east stand turnstiles on Harvey Gardens.
