WHITEHALL Bowling Club, Darwen, is celebrating its centenary next year and is on the lookout for old photographs and memorabilia.
It wants to stage an exhibition when the new season gets under way in April.
Patricia Turner has spent hours trawling through newspaper cuttings at Darwen Library and is building up an interesting file. But she is struggling to find many photographs, especially from before the Second World War.
She said: “Former players must have some old photographs lying around and it would be great if they could get in touch.”
One she would particularly like is of the 700-plus crowd that watched the last Darwen News Cup Final in the summer of 1940 before the war stopped play.
