Billericay Town's history in the F.A. Vase, F.A. Trophy and F.A. Cup is fairly well documented, but it came as somewhat of a surprise to me to discover that we had once played in the F.A. Amateur Cup.
This programme from 30th September 1972 is for a home fixture against Clapton in the 72/73 competition - the penultimate year before professionalism was allowed into the amateur game, and the competition was abolished.

I wasn't aware that we were issuing programmes as early as this until recently (I do have one older one from the same season), so I wonder if anybody has any from earlier seasons? If so, scans to
