Each book measures 38 x 31cm bound in a beautiful premium leatherette now with stylish Charcoal cover, with team name and new football emblem and recipient's name gold embossed on the cover. The new emblem includes the words ‘Decorus Venatus’, Latin for the beautiful game. The personalised label inside the book also includes the recipient's name and a message of your choice.

Top early stories include beating Sheffield Wed in the FA Cup Qtr final in 1923, gaining promotion to Division 2 in 1948 and thrashing Crystal Palace 5-2 in 1961.

The 1960s was the era of QPR as a rising star and coverage includes winning the League Cup in 1967, promotion to Division 2 in that year and promotion the following year to Division 1.

Relive the glory days of the 1970s when QPR were pipped to the title by Liverpool in their last match of the 1976 season, the stunning 4-0 win over Man U in 1977 and the 6-1 pounding of West Ham in 1978.

Read about the 1982 FA Cup final, becoming Division 2 champions in 1983, the fabulous 6-0 win over Chelsea in 1986 and of course the Milk Cup final of that year.

European top games are also covered as are the top Premiership games played in the early and mid 90s.

Newspaper coverage continues right up to last season. A unique and wonderful gift and must have for all QPR fans.
