Football Times Query

I am working on a book about the Australian Football Championships competitions between 1979 and 1986.

I am coming over at the start of June for a few days to do some research through old copies of the Advertiser at the State Library, but I am wondering if anyone knows whether they also have old copies of Football Times on file as well.

I know here in Perth, someone was given permission to scan all the old copies of Westside Football and sell them on a USB stick. I don't suppose something similar has happened with the Football Times?

Failing all that, I suppose I would have to rifle through what Gerry has on hand down at At The Toss Of A Coin.

I bought some from 1979 and a few from years before and after.

What I'd really love to get is a full collection of Footy Week from the late 60s early 70s...I've got about 50 of them; great for photos and individual player stats from each game. They should all be scanned and put on to USB.

the first oval to have fencing behind the goals in the early 70s (i think) ? was alberton?
