The newspaper, dated September 17, 1976, featured the front page story headline “Crash bring new shock for MP”.

Now we’re challenging YEP readers to let us know if they can go one better and have even older copies of the newspaper.

If you have an old copy, send your picture of it to [email protected] along with your name and the date of the newspaper.
