1959 Jim Mercer Cartoon
There is a Nottingham Forest match cartoon for sale on eBay if anyone is interested. It is cut from a newspaper and not a copy.

Re: 1959 Jim Mercer Cartoon
Jim Mercer was a great cartoonist, who covered the satirical aspect of Tooting, including players, games, management, officials and even the weather.
Sadly the demise of the local press, would not facilitate such content what remains of the industry. What would our "Jim" make of the Football Club today!
sincece 2005: The challenge is to make Tooting & Mitcham United FC the best semi-professional club in the land, one built on sound foundations of good practice in all matters!! (You can’t make this up lol)

Re: 1959 Jim Mercer Cartoon
Indeed Mike. He was from Streatham I think, and covered sport in the local area, especially Toots and Streatham Rugby Club.
Strangely though, there is sod all about him on the internet.
I wonder how he would portray our current team?
