A signed manuscript letter from Charlie Buchan dated 12th May 1927, 1 page, probably to a publisher who had enquired if Buchan was considering writing an autobiography, to which Buchan declines and says 'I would not consider a book by myself at present , I would not want such a book to appear until I was practically at the end of my playing days, I do not consider that that time has arrived yet.' For the record Buchan played one more season retiring a year after the date of this letter. He did eventually write his biography 'A Lifetime in Football' way after his playing days in 1955, and four years after he had launched his highly successful Football Monthly magazine.
