His helpers will be scanning the photos into a computer to go on display in Pete’s new show, 6 Weeks to Eternity, which is taking place at Magna in Rotherham next month.
The first 100 people to bring a photo between 9am and 4pm tomorrow will receive a 6 Weeks poster signed by Pete.

Pete was a big fan of the game as a youngster and said he had 13 teams, adding: “I was fanatical!
“I had a Sheffield Wednesday team and you could pretend they were all the other football clubs who wore the same stripes.”

Pete said: “I haven’t done a big show in Sheffield for about three years. I wanted to make a bigstatement exhibition.
“Because I love nostalgia, I decided to look back to the six-week holidays because I always have fond memories of them.”
